Setting up the Phone  
note  
Choose the best location  
When choosing a location for your new phone, here are some  
important guidelines you should consider:  
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.  
• 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.  
• For better reception, place the base as high as possible.  
• The base should be placed in an open area for optimum range and  
reception.

different ways: tone dialing and pulse dialing. These days, most  
phone networks use a method called tone dialing, so your phone  
comes programmed for tone dialing.  
If your phone company uses pulse dialing, you'll need to change  
your phone's dial mode. There's an easy way to tell: try making a  
call. If your call connects, your phone's setting is fine. If not,  
go to Dial Mode and select Pulse. A confirmation tone tells you  
you've changed the dial mode, and you can try making a call  
again.

Warning!  
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.  
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.  
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.  
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.

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.  
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.  
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.  
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.  
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.  
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.  
One Year Limited Warranty  
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.  
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.  
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).  
Disconnect the battery from the Product and separately  
secure the battery in its own separate packaging within  
the shipping carton. 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:  
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.  
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.
