Setting up the Phone  
Do the following steps:  
A. Choose the best location  
C. Connect the base unit  
B. Install the rechargeable battery pack into the handset  
If your home has specially  
wired alarm equipment  
connected to the  
telephone line, be sure  
that installing the system  
does not disable your  
alarm equipment.  
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:  
Avoid noise sources such as a window by a  
street with heavy traffic  
Avoid heat sources, such as  
radiators, air ducts, and sunlight  
If you have questions  
about what will disable  
your alarm equipment,  
contact your telephone  
company or a qualified  
installer.  
Avoid television sets and  
other electronic equipment  
Avoid microwave ovens  
Avoid excessive moisture,  
extremely low temperatures,  
dust, mechanical vibration, or shock  
Choose a central location  
Avoid personal computers  
Avoid other cordless telephones  
The location should be close to both a phone jack and a continuous power outlet which 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 desk, tabletop, or mounted on a standard wall plate.

B. Install the rechargeable battery pack into the handset  
The handset is powered by a rechargeable battery pack.  
The battery recharges automatically when the handset is placed on the base unit.  
Charge the handset battery pack for at least 15-20 hours before using your new cordless  
telephone for the first time! To maximize the charge capacity of your battery pack, DO NOT  
plug the telephone cord into the base unit and wall jack until the battery is fully charged.  
Use only the Uniden  
(BT-905) rechargeable  
battery pack supplied  
with your cordless  
telephone.  
1) Press up on the latch and lift the battery cover.  
Replacement batteries are  
also available through  
the Uniden Parts  
Department at (800) 554-  
3988, Monday thru Friday  
from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00  
p.m. or online at  
2) Connect the battery pack connector observing correct  
polarity (black and red wires) to the jack inside the battery  
compartment.  
Do not exert any force on this connection. It could cause damage to  
the battery or handset. Once you are certain that you have made a  
good connection, then insert the battery pack into the battery  
compartment. Do not pinch the wires.  
Recharge your phone on  
a regular basis by  
returning the handset to  
the base after each  
phone call.  
3) Insert the tabs of the cover into the slots of the battery  
compartment and securely close the cover by pressing down.

Mounting the Base Unit on a Wall  
Standard wall plate mounting  
This phone can be mounted on any standard wall plate.  
1) Plug the AC adapter to the DC IN 9V jack.  
2) Wrap the AC adapter cord inside the molded wiring channel as shown.  
3) Plug the AC adapter into a standard 120V AC wall outlet.  
4) Plug the telephone line cord into the TEL LINE jack. Wrap the cord  
inside the molded wiring channel as shown.  
5) Plug the telephone line cord into the telephone outlet.  
6) Raise the antenna to a vertical position.  
DO NOT use an AC outlet  
controlled by a wall  
switch.  
7) Align the mounting slots on the base with the mounting posts on the  
wall. Then push in and down until the phone is firmly seated.  
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 above.

approaching. Lightning can pass through your household wiring and  
damage any device connected to it. This phone is no exception.  
Rechargeable Nickel-Cadmium  
Batteries Must Be Recycled or  
Disposed of Properly  
The FCC Wants You To Know  
Uniden voluntarily participates in an  
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. Your telephone compiles with Part 68 of FCC Rules. You  
must, upon request, provide the FCC registration number and the REN  
to your telephone company. Both numbers are on the base unit.  
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.  
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. Uniden's involvement in this program is  
part of its commitment to protecting our environment and  
conserving natural resources.  
NOTE:  
You must not connect your phone to:

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.

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.)  
E. If the product has been dropped or the cabinet has been  
damaged.  
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

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.  
Uniden works to reduce lead content in our PVC coated cords in our  
product and accessories.  
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.  
WARNING!  
The cords on this products 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 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 INFORMATION [ 49 ]  
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.)  
Keep the base and handset away from sources of electrical noise  
such as motors or fluorescent lighting.  
Be sure there is sufficient space to fully extend the base antenna.  
The base can be placed on a desk or tabletop or mounted on a  
standard telephone wall plate.  
You should charge your new phone for 15-20 hours before  
completing the installation or using the handset.  
Telephone Line Problems  
One Year Limited Warranty  
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.  
Important: Evidence of original purchase is required for warranty service.  
WARRANTOR: UNIDEN AMERICA CORPORATION (Uniden)  
ELEMENTS OF WARRANTY: Uniden warrants, for one year, to the  
original retail owner, this Uniden Product to be free from defects in  
materials and craftsmanship with only the limitations or exclusions  
set out below.  
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.  
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.  
Telephone Line Outlets  
There are two types of phone outlets:  
Radio Interference  
Modular Jack  
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.  
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  
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.  
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 antenna on the unit is fully  
extended.  
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.  
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.  
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.  
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 and Canada.  
Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.  
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:  
Applying Power to the Base  
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 back of the base.  
More Than One Cordless Telephone  
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.

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.  
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.
