instructions:  
1.  
Use only the appropriate type and size Battery Pack specified in this Operating Guide.  
2. Do not dispose of the Battery Pack in a fire. The cell may explode.  
3. Do not open or mutilate the Battery Pack. Released electrolyte is corrosive and may cause  
damage to the eyes or skin. It may be toxic if swallowed.

accordance with the instructions and limitations specified in the instruction manual provided  
for this product.  
6. Observe proper polarity orientation between the Battery Pack and battery charger,  
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  
telephone unit. Consequently, any communications using your cordless telephone may not be  
private.  
Important Notes  
l
To make use of the Caller Display Features of  
this phone; you must subscribe to your telephone  
service provider’s Caller Display Service.  
l
This model has been specifically designed for  
the Australian market.  
l
This XCAI680 can display both the name and  
number of the calling party.  
However at this time, Telstra is not forwarding  
the name. This feature may be available in the  
future.  
l
Each telephone device that you connect draws  
power from the phone line. We refer to the power  
drawn as the device’s Ringer Equivalence Num-  
ber or REN. The REN is shown on the bottom of  
your telephone. If you are using more than one  
phone or other device on the line, add up all the  
RENs. If the total is more than 3, your phones might  
not ring. In rural areas, a total REN of three might  
impair ringing operation.

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 or flipping switches. AutoStandby™ allows you to hang up by  
simply returning the Handset to the Base.

background noise and provides you with the best possible reception during all of your conversa-  
tions.

security codes for the Handset and Base Units. Also, the AutoSecure™ feature electronically locks  
your phone when the Handset is on the Base.

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: Please do not attempt to unplug any appliance during an electrical storm.  
Caution:  
Changes or modifications to this product not expressly approved by Uniden. or operation  
of this product in any way other than as detailed by this Operating Guide, could void  
your authority to operate this product.  
Range  
Your new phone is designed to achieve the maximum possible range by transmitting and receiving  
according to the highest specifications. 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.  
Telephone Line Problems  
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.  
Radio Interference  
Radio interference may occasionally cause buzzing and humming in your cordless Handset, or  
clicking noises in the Base Unit. 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.  
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, press the channel key to select a channel  
that provides the clearest communication.  
Finally, it should be noted that some cordless telephones operate at frequencies that may cause  
interference to nearby TVs and VCRs. To minimise 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.  
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.

Installation  
Selecting a Location  
Before choosing a location for your new phone, there are some important guidelines you should  
consider:  
l
The location should be close to both a phone jack and continuous power outlet.  
Note: Make sure that the AC outlet is switched on for continuous power supply  
Keep the Base Unit 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 Unit antenna.  
The Base Unit can be placed on a desk or tabletop or wall mounted.  
If you decide to mount your phone on the wall, make sure to change the Handset Retainer  
so that the tab which holds the Handset faces up. (See page 14 for more information.)  
You should charge your new phone for 15-20 hours before completing the installation or  
using the Handset.  
Telephone Line 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.

disconnected.  
l

Charging the Battery Pack  
InitialBatteryCharging  
The rechargeable Nickel-Cadmium battery pack must be fully charged before using your phone for  
the first time. We recommend that the battery pack charge for approximately 15-20 hours, without  
interruption, before plugging the phone line into your new phone.  
1. Place the Handset on the Base Unit.  
-OR-  
Hang the Handset on the cradle when the phone is  
mounted on a wall.  
Note: Make sure to change the Handset Retainer  
before hanging up the phone.

light, check to see that the AC adapter is plugged in,  
and that the Handset is making good contact with the  
Base Unit charging contacts.

Battery Memory Effect  
Rechargeable batteries can develop a “memory” (reduced charge capacity) caused by repeated  
charge and discharge cycles. The battery life will seem to be shorter every time you use the unit.  
To Avoid Memory Effect  
At least once a month, operate the unit until the “Battery Low” indicator appears. Avoid “topping off”  
the charge after using the phone for a short time. Also, do not charge the Rechargeable Battery for  
extended periods of time.  
Setting the Pulse/Tone Switch  
Be sure the Pulse/Tone switch is in the tone position.  
Note: Most phone systems are tone dialing.  
Check wifh your local phone company if you are not sure whether your system is tone  
or pulse dialing.

record a hang up/dial tone message.  
Setting the Toll Saver Switch  
The Ring Time/Toll Saver switch allows you to set the number of rings the caller hears before your  
Answering System answers. You can set the switch to answer after 2 rings or after 4 rings. In the  
TS (Toll Saver) position, the Answering System answers after 2 rings if you have new messages  
recorded, and it answers after 4 rings if there are no new messages. So if you call long distance to  
check your messages, you can hang up after the third ring and not be billed.
