AutoTalk

TM

allows you to answer a call by just removing the handset from the base.

AutoStandby

TM

allows you to hang up by simply returning the handset to the base.

Random Code

TM

protects you against misbilled calls, which might result from your phone being

activated by other equipment. Random Code digital security automatically selects one of approx.

65,000 digital security codes for the handset and base. Also, AutoSecure

TM

electronically locks

your phone when the handset is in the base.

Digital Spread Spectrum Technology utilizes a “wider frequency band” vs. a “single narrow

band” used in standard digital transmissions. The result is a more secure conversation with the

clarity of digital sound, extended range, and minimal interference from other cordless phones.

Standby Mode - The handset is not in use, is off of the base, and has not been pressed. A

dial tone is not present and the display is blank.

Talk Mode - The handset is not on the base and has been pressed enabling a dial tone.

Talk appears on the display.

[ 6 ] GETTING STARTED

Setting up the Phone

Do the following steps:

A. Choose the best location C. Connect the base unit

B. Install the battery pack D. Choose the dialing mode

A. Choose the best location

Before choosing a location for your new phone, read the INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS included in

the PRECAUTIONS AND IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS. Here are some important guidelines you

should consider:

• The location should be close to both a phone jack and a continuous power outlet that is

not switchable.

• Keep the base and handset away from sources of electrical noise such as motors, microwave

ovens, and fluorescent lighting.

• Be sure there is sufficient space to raise the base antenna to a vertical position.

• The base can be placed on a flat surface such as desk, tabletop, or mounted on a standard

wall plate.

Avoid excessive moisture,

extremely low temperatures,

dust, mechanical vibration, or shock

Avoid heat sources, such as

radiators, air ducts, and sunlight

Avoid television sets and

other electronic equipment

Avoid noise sources such as a window

by a street with heavy traffic

Avoid microwave ovens

Avoid personal computers

Avoid other cordless telephones

Choose a central location

[ 7 ]GETTING STARTED

GETTING STARTED

B. Install the battery pack

Place the handset on the base unit and charge the battery pack for at

least 15-20 hours before plugging the phone line into your phone.

Battery use time (per charge)

From fully charged:

• 6 hours continuous use.

• 10 days when the handset is in the standby mode.

Low battery alert

If the phone is not in use, “Low Battery” appears on

the LCD and none of the keys will operate. If the phone

is in use, “

Low Battery” flashes and the handset

beeps. Complete your conversation as quickly as

possible and return the handset to the base unit

for charging.

• Even when the battery

pack is not being used,

it will gradually

discharge over a long

period of time. For

optimum performance,

be sure to return the

handset to the base

unit after each

telephone call.

• If you must replace the

battery pack during a

telephone call,

complete the

replacement of the

battery pack within

30 seconds, and you

can return to the

original call.

• Use only the Uniden

Battery supplied with

your phone.

D. Choose the dialing mode

Most phone systems use tone dialing, which sends DTMF tones through the

phone lines. However, some phone systems still use pulse dialing such as in

rural areas. The default setting is tone dialing. Depending on your dialing

system, set the mode as follows:

Base setting only

1 Press and hold until you hear a confirmation tone.

2 To set the dial mode for pulse dialing, press . Or to set the dial

mode for tone dialing, press . A confirmation tone sounds to

indicate the setting is complete.

• If you are not sure of your dialing system, set for tone dialing. Make a

trial call. If the call connects, leave the setting as is, otherwise set for

pulse dialing.

• If your phone system requires pulse dialing and you need to send the DTMF

tones for certain situations during a call, you may “switch-over” to tone

dialing (refer to “Tone Dialing Switch-over” on page 32).

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 Set the retainer clip if necessary.

3 Refer to steps 1 through 4 on page 10 to mount

the telephone.
