Setting up the Phone  
note

Correct  
Antenna  
• The location should be close to both a phone jack and a continuous power outlet (one  
which is not connected to a switch).  
• The base and handset should be kept away from sources of electrical noise such as motors,  
Microwave ovens, and fluorescent lighting.  
Incorrect  
• For better reception, place the base as high as possible.  
•Metal and reinforced  
concrete may affect

• The base should be placed in an open area for optimum range and reception.  
• If your home has specially wired alarm equipment connected to phone line, be sure that  
installing the system does not disable your alarm equipment. If you have questions about  
what will disable alarm equipment, contact your telephone company or a qualified  
installer.

used batteries according to the instructions. Do not open or mutilate  
the battery, and disconnect the battery before shipping this product.  
• This equipment contains rechargeable Lithium Ion and Nickel-Metal-  
Hydride battery.  
NOTICE: According to telephone company reports, AC electrical surges,  
typically resulting from lightning strikes, are very destructive to  
telephone equipment connected to AC power sources. To minimize  
damage from these types of surges, a surge arrestor is recommended.  
• The rechargeable batteries contained in this equipment may explode  
if disposed of in a fire.  
The FCC Wants You To Know  
This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC rules and the  
requirements adopted by the ACTA. On the bottom of this equipment is  
a label that contains, among other information, a product identifier in  
the format US:AAAEQ##TXXXX. If requested, this number must be  
provided to the telephone company.  
• Nickel is a chemical known to state of California to cause cancer.  
• Do not short-circuit the battery.  
• Do not charge the rechargeable battery used in this equipment in any  
charger other than the one designed to charge this battery as  
specified in the owner's manual. Using another charger may damage  
the battery or cause the battery to explode.  
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 owner's manual, could void your authority to operate this  
product.  
An applicable Universal Service Order Codes (USOC) certification for the  
jacks used in this equipment is provided (i.e., RJ11C) in the packaging  
with each piece of approved terminal equipment.  
A plug and jack used to connect this equipment to the premises wiring  
and telephone network must comply with the applicable FCC Part 68  
rules and requirements adopted by the ACTA. A compliant telephone  
cord and modular plug is provided with this product. It is designed to  
be connected to a compatible modular jack that is also compliant. See  
installation instructions for details.  
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is subject  
to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful  
interference, and (2) This device must accept any interference  
received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.  
Privacy of communications, may not be ensured when using this phone.  
To insure the safety of users, the FCC has established criteria for the  
amount of radio frequency energy various products may produce  
depending on their intended usage. This product has been tested and  
found to comply with the FCC's exposure criteria. For body worn  
operation, the FCC RF exposure guidelines were also met when used  
with the Uniden accessories supplied or designed for this product. Use  
of other accessories may not ensure compliance with FCC RF exposure  
guidelines and should be avoided.  
Rechargeable Batteries Must Be Recycled or  
Disposed of Properly  
The exclamation point within an equilateral  
is  
intended to alert the user to the presence of important  
operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in  
the literature accompanying the appliance.  
The REN is used to determine the number of devices that may be  
connected to a telephone line. Excessive RENs on a telephone line may  
result in the devices not ringing in response to an incoming call. In  
most but not all areas, the sum of RENs should not exceed five (5.0).  
To be certain of the number of devices that may be connected to a line,  
as determined by the total RENs, contact the local telephone company.  
For products approved after July 23, 2001, the REN for this product is  
part of the product identifier that has the format US:AAAEQ##TXXXX.  
The digits represented by ## are the REN without a decimal point (e.g.,  
03 is a REN of 0.3). For earlier products, the REN is separately shown  
on the label.  
Uniden works to reduce lead content in our PVC coated cords in our  
products and accessories.  
Radio Interference  
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.  
Warning!  
The cords on this product and/or accessories contain lead, a chemical  
known to the State of California to cause birth defects or other  
reproductive harm. Wash hands after handling.  
If this equipment causes harm to the telephone network, the telephone  
company will notify you in advance that temporary discontinuance of  
service may be required. But if advance notice isn't practical, the  
telephone company will notify the customer as soon as possible. Also,  
you will be advised of your right to file a complaint with the FCC if you  
believe it is necessary.  
Important Safety Instructions  
When using your telephone equipment, basic safety precautions should  
always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock and injury  
to persons, including the following:  
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.  
1. Do not use this product near water, for example, near a bath tub,  
wash bowl, kitchen sink or laundry tub, in a wet basement or near a  
swimming pool.  
2. Avoid using a telephone (other than a cordless type) during an  
electrical storm. There may be a remote risk of electric shock from  
lightning.  
The telephone company may make changes in its facilities, equipment,  
operations or procedures that could affect the operation of the  
equipment. If this happens the telephone company will provide  
advance notice in order for you to make necessary modifications to  
maintain uninterrupted service.

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.  
LEGAL REMEDIES: This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you

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.
