Direct wall mounting  
If you don't have a standard wall plate, you can mount your phone directly to the  
wall. Before doing this, consider the following:  
Avoid electrical cables, pipes, or other items behind the mounting location that  
could cause a hazard when inserting screws into the wall.  
Try to mount your phone within 5 feet of a working phone jack to avoid  
excessive cord lengths.  
Make sure the wall material is capable of supporting the weight of the base  
and handset.  
Use #10 screws (minimum length of 1-3/ 8 inches) with anchoring devices  
suitable for the wall material where the base unit will be placed.  
1)Insert two mounting screws into the wall, (with their  
appropriate anchoring device), 3-15/ 16 inches apart. Allow  
about 1/ 8 of an inch between the wall and screw heads for  
mounting the phone.  
2)Refer to steps 1 through 7 on page 13 to mount the telephone.

Redial  
The redial/p key redials the last number dialed. The redialed number can be up to  
32 digits long.  
Tone Dialing Switch-over  
Some telephone companies use equipment that requires pulse  
dialing (sometimes referred to as rotary dialing). If you need  
to enter tone dialing digits, you can switch-over to tone  
dialing during the call. For example, entering your bank  
account number after you have called your bank.  
The tone feature  
only applies when  
the dial mode is set  
to pulse.  
This special number  
can be stored in a  
memory location.  
This is referred to as  
Chain Dialing (See  
page 27.)  
Initially make your call with the pulse dialing mode. Once your call connects, press  
/ tone/ . Enter the desired number. These digits will be sent as tone dialing.  
Once the call ends, the tone mode is canceled and pulse dialing mode resumes.

Traveling Out-of-Range  
During a call, as you begin to move your handset too far from your base unit,  
noise increases. If you pass the range limits of the base unit, your call will  
terminate within 1 minute.

this equipment in any charger other than the one designed to  
charge this battery as specified in the owners manual. Using  
another charger may damage the battery or cause the battery to  
explode.  
6. Observe proper polarity orientation between the battery pack and  
battery charger.  
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!  
Important Electrical Considerations  
Unplug all electrical appliances when you know an electrical storm is  
approaching. Lightning can pass through your household wiring and  
damage any device connected to it. This phone is no exception.  
Warning!  
Rechargeable Nickel-Cadmium  
Batteries Must Be Recycled or  
Disposed of Properly  
Please do not attempt to unplug any appliance during an electrical  
storm.  
The FCC Wants You To Know  
Uniden voluntarily participates in an RBRC® industry program to  
collect and recycle nickel-cadmium batteries at the end of their  
useful life, when taken out of service within the United States.  
The RBRC® program provides a convenient alternative to placing  
used nickel-cadmium batteries into the trash or municipal waste  
stream, which is illegal in some areas.  
Changes or modifications to this product not expressly approved by  
Uniden, or operation of this product in any way other than as  
detailed by the owners manual, could void your authority to operate  
this product. The equipment cannot be used on public coin phone  
service provided by the telephone company. Connection to party line  
service is subject to state tariffs. (Contact the state public utility  
commission, public service commission or corporation commission for  
information.)  
Through the RBRC® program, Uniden makes it easy for you to drop  
off the used battery at local retailers of replacement nickel-  
cadmium batteries. You may also contact your local recycling  
center for information on where to return the used battery. Please  
call 1-800-8-BATTERY for information on Ni-Cd battery recycling in  
your area. Unidens involvement in this program is part of its  
commitment to protecting our environment and conserving  
natural resources.  
Range  
Your new phone is designed to achieve the maximum possible range  
by transmitting and receiving according to the highest specifications  
set forth by the FCC. We have rated this phone to operate at a  
maximum distance with the qualification that the range depends  
upon the environment in which the telephone is used. Many factors  
limit range, and it would be impossible to include all the variables in  
our rating. The Maximum Range rating of this phone is meant to be  
used as a means of comparison against other range claims.  
RBRC® is a registered trademark of the Rechargeable Battery  
Recycling Corporation.  
C. If the product has been exposed to rain or water.  
D. If the product does not operate normally when following the  
operating instructions. (Adjust only those controls that are  
covered by the operating instructions. Improper adjustment  
of other controls may result in damage and will often require  
extensive repair work by a qualified technician.)  
The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle  
is intended to alert the user to the presence of  
important operating and maintenance (servicing)  
instructions in the literature accompanying the  
appliance.  
Telephone Line Problems  
The FCC has granted the telephone company the right to disconnect  
service in the event that your phone causes problems on the  
telephone line. Also, the telephone company may make changes in  
facilities and services which may affect the operation of your unit.  
However, your telephone company must give adequate notice in  
writing prior to such actions to allow you time for making necessary  
arrangements to continue uninterrupted service.  
E. If the product has been dropped or the cabinet has been  
damaged.  
F. If the product exhibits a distinct change in performance.  
13. Do not use the telephone to report a gas leak in the vicinity of  
the leak.  
If you are having trouble with your telephone service, you must first  
disconnect your phone to determine if it is the cause of your  
problem. If you determine that it is the cause, you must leave it  
disconnected until the trouble has been corrected.  
Additional Battery Safety Precautions  
Caution!  
To reduce the risk of fire or injury to persons by the  
battery, read and follow these instructions:  
1. Use only the Uniden battery pack specified in the owners manual.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION [ 59 ]  
WARRANTY DURATION: This warranty to the original user shall  
terminate and be of no further effect 12 months after the date of  
original retail sale. The warranty is invalid if the Product is (A)  
damaged or not maintained as reasonable or necessary, (B) modified,  
altered, or used as part of any conversion kits, subassemblies, or any  
configurations not sold by Uniden, (C) improperly installed, (D)  
serviced or repaired by someone other than an authorized Uniden  
service center for a defect or malfunction covered by this warranty,  
(E) used in any conjunction with equipment or parts or as part of any  
system not manufactured by Uniden, or (F) installed or programmed  
by anyone other than as detailed by the owners manual for this  
product.  
Radio Interference  
Telephone Line Outlets  
Radio interference may occasionally cause buzzing and humming in  
your cordless handset, or clicking noises in the base. This  
interference is caused by external sources such as TV, refrigerator,  
vacuum cleaner, fluorescent lighting, or electrical storm. Your unit is  
NOT DEFECTIVE. If these noises continue and are too distracting,  
please check around your home to see what appliances may be  
causing the problem. In addition, we recommend that the base not  
be plugged into a circuit that also powers a major appliance because  
of the potential for interference. Be certain that the antenna on the  
unit is fully extended when needed.  
There are two types of phone outlets:  
Modular Jack  
Most phone equipment available now uses modular jacks. Phone cords  
are fitted with a molded plastic connector which plugs into this type  
of jack. If you do not have modular phone jacks, contact your local  
telephone company for information about their installation.  
Hardwired Jack  
Some equipment is wired directly to a phone jack, and these types of  
installations require a modular jack converter. This type of  
installation is not difficult; however, you should contact your Uniden  
telephone dealer or a telephone supply store for advice about the  
proper adapter or converter for your particular situation.  
In the unlikely event that you consistently hear other voices or  
distracting transmissions on your phone, you may be receiving radio  
signals from another cordless telephone or other source of  
interference. If you cannot eliminate this type of interference, you  
need to change to a different channel.  
Finally, it should be noted that some cordless telephones operate at  
frequencies that may cause interference to nearby TVs and VCRs. To  
minimize or prevent such interference, the base of the cordless  
telephone should not be placed near or on top of a TV or VCR. If  
interference is experienced, moving the cordless telephone farther  
away from the TV or VCR will often reduce or eliminate the  
interference.  
STATEMENT OF REMEDY: In the event that the product does not  
conform to this warranty at any time while this warranty is in effect,  
warrantor will either, at its option, repair or replace the defective  
unit and return it to you without charge for parts, service, or any  
other cost (except shipping and handling) incurred by warrantor or  
its representatives in connection with the performance of this  
warranty. Warrantor, at its option, may replace the unit with a new or  
refurbished unit. THE LIMITED WARRANTY SET FORTH ABOVE IS THE  
SOLE AND ENTIRE WARRANTY PERTAINING TO THE PRODUCT AND IS IN  
LIEU OF AND EXCLUDES ALL OTHER WARRANTIES OF ANY NATURE  
WHATSOEVER, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR ARISING BY OPERATION  
OF LAW, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES  
OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THIS  
WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER OR PROVIDE FOR THE REIMBURSEMENT  
OR PAYMENT OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES. Some  
states do not allow this exclusion or limitation of incidental or  
consequential damages so the above limitation or exclusion may not  
apply to you.  
Connecting the Telephone Cords  
Consider these safety guidelines before connecting the telephone  
cords:  
Caution!  
Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.  
Never touch uninsulated telephone wires or terminals unless the  
telephone line has been disconnected.  
Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.  
Applying Power to the Base  
More Than One Cordless Telephone  
This phone requires an AC outlet, without a switch to interrupt  
power, and the included AC adapter. To relieve strain on the DC plug  
when the phone is placed on a desk or table, wrap the power cord  
around the strain relief notch on the bottom of the base.  
If you want to use more than one cordless telephone in your home,  
they must operate on different channels. Press the channel key to  
select a channel that provides the clearest communication.  
NOTE:  
Place the power cord so that it does not create a trip  
hazard, or where it could become chafed and create a fire  
or other electrical hazards.  
Cordless Telephone Privacy  
Cordless telephones are radio devices. Communications between the  
handset and base of your cordless telephone are accomplished by  
means of radio waves which are broadcast over the open airways.  
Because of the inherent physical properties of radio waves, your  
communications can be received by radio receiving devices other  
than your own cordless telephone unit. Consequently, any  
communications using your cordless telephone may not be private.  
LEGAL REMEDIES: This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and  
you may also have other rights which vary from state to state. This  
warranty is void outside the United States of America.  
Adapter Safety Features  
Do not use an outlet controlled by a wall switch.  
PROCEDURE FOR OBTAINING PERFORMANCE OF WARRANTY: If, after  
following the instructions in the owners manual you are certain that  
the Product is defective, pack the Product carefully (preferably in its  
original packaging). The Product should include all parts and  
accessories originally packaged with the Product. Include evidence of  
original purchase and a note describing the defect that has caused  
you to return it. The Product should be shipped freight prepaid, by  
traceable means, to warrantor at:  
Use only the Uniden AC Adapter supplied with this phone.  
Installation Considerations  
Selecting a Location  
Before choosing a location for your new phone, there are some  
important guidelines you should consider:  
One Year Limited Warranty  
Important: Evidence of original purchase is required for warranty  
The location should be close to both a phone jack and continuous  
power outlet. (A continuous power outlet is an AC outlet which  
does not have a switch to interrupt its power.)
