The EXT1460 series features include AutoTalk™ and AutoStandby™. AutoTalk allows you to
answer a call by just removing the handset from the base so you don’t have to waste time
pushing buttons. AutoStandby allows you to hang up by simply returning the handset to
the base.
To protect you against mis-billed calls, which might result from your phone being activated by
other equipment, the EXT1460 has Random Code™ digital security, which automatically selects
one of over 65,000 digital security codes for the handset and base. Also, AutoSecure™
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.
Uniden® is a registered trademark of Uniden America Corporation.

Direct wall plate 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 10 - 15 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 7 on page 17 to mount the telephone.

PRECAUTIONS & WARRANTY [ 55 ]
Telephone Line Problems
Installation Considerations
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
Selecting a Location
warranty service.
Before choosing a location for your new phone, there are some
important guidelines you should consider:
• 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.
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.
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.
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 owner’s manual for this product.
Radio Interference
• You should charge your new phone for 15-20 hours before
completing the installation or using the handset.
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.
Telephone Line Outlets
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
More than One Cordless Telephone
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.
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.
• Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.
Applying Power to the Base
Cordless Telephone Privacy
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.
PROCEDURE FOR OBTAINING PERFORMANCE OF WARRANTY: If, after
following the instructions in the owner’s 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:
