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
lengths.
• Make sure the wall material is capable of supporting the weight of the main base
and handset.
• Use #10 screws (minimum length of 1-3/8 inches) with anchoring devices suitable
for the wall material where the main 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 6 on page 14 to mount the telephone.
Terminology

The FCC Wants You To Know
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 prod-
uct. The equipment cannot be used on public coin phone service provid-
ed by the telephone company. Connection to party line service is sub-

Rechargeable Nickel-Cadmium
Batteries Must Be Recycled or
Disposed of Properly
•
Uniden voluntarily participates in an 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.
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 envi-
ronment 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.
•
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 infor-
mation on where to return the used battery. Please call 1-800-8-BAT-
TERY 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.

Telephone Line Problems
The FCC has granted the telephone company the right to disconnect ser-
vice 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 contin-
ue uninterrupted service.

intended to alert the user to the presence of impor-
tant operating and maintenance (servicing) instruc-
tions in the literature accompanying the appliance.
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 Battery Safety Precautions
Caution!
To reduce the risk of fire or injury to persons by the bat-
tery, read and follow these instructions:
Important Safety Instructions
1. Use only Uniden battery pack specified in the owner’s manual.
2. Do not dispose of the battery pack in a fire. The cell may explode.
Check the nickel-cadmium battery disposal package insert for dis-
posal instructions.
Radio Interference
When using your telephone equipment, these basic safety precautions
should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock,
and injury to persons:
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, flu-
orescent 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,
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.
1. Read and understand all instructions.
2. Follow all warnings and instructions marked on the product.
3. Unplug this product from the wall outlet before cleaning. Use a dry
4. Exercise care in handling the battery in order not to short the bat-

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.
In the unlikely event that you consistently hear other voices or distract-
ing 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 dif-
ferent channel.
Finally, it should be noted that some cordless telephones operate at fre-
quencies that may cause interference to nearby TVs and VCRs. To mini-
mize 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.

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 tele-
phone line has been disconnected.
•
Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.
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 bottom of the base.
More Than One Cordless Telephone

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 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.
If the AC adapter furnished with this phone has a polarized line plug (a
plug having one blade wider than the other), this plug will fit into the
power outlet only one way. If you are unable to insert the plug fully
into the outlet, try reversing the plug.
Do not alter the shape of the blades of the polarized plug!
NOTE:
If you cannot plug the AC adapter into the outlet, con-
tact someone about replacing the outlet.
