PRIVACY
Note: Cordless telephones are radio devices. Communications between
the handset and base of your cordless telephone are accompanied by
means of radio waves which are broadcast over the open airways.
Because of the inherent physical properties of radio waves, your
communications ca be received by radio devices other than your own
cordless telephone unit. Consequently, any communications using your
cordless telephone nay not be private.

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 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.
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.
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 when needed.
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.
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:
• The location should be close to both a phone jack and continuous power
outlet.
Note: A continuous power outlet is an AC outlet which does not have a
switch to interrupt its power.
• 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 mounted on a
standard AT&T or GTE wall plate.
• 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 17 for more information.)
• You should charge your new phone for 15-20 hours before completing the
installation or using the Handset.
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.
Hard-wired 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.
• Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.
Applying Power to the Base Unit
The DXI6 6 5 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, connect the adapter as shown below.

Direct Wall Mounting
If you do not have a standard wall plate, you can mount your phone directly on a
wall. Before mounting your phone, consider the following:
• Select a location away from electrical cables, pipes, or other items behind
the mounting location that could cause a hazard when inserting screws into
the wall.
• Make sure the wall material is capable of supporting the weight of the Base
Unit and Handset.
• Use #10 screws with anchoring devices suitable for the wall material where
the Base Unit will be placed.

Charging the Battery Pack
Initial Battery Charging
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. You may use the Base Unit to answer calls while the
Handset is charging. See page 41, Using the DXI665 Base Unit.

Continuous Battery Charging
For the best battery performance, return the Handset to the Base Unit at the end
of the day. This keeps the battery fully charged, so your phone works best and
avoids the battery “memory effect.”
Battery Memory Effect
Rechargeable batteries can develop a “memory” (reduced charge capacity)
caused by repeated charge and discharge cycles.
Rechargeable batteries that have developed this effect will not operate to their
fullest capacity.
To Avoid Memory Effect: Operate the unit until the Rechargeable Battery is
completely discharged before recharging. Do not “top off” the charge after using
for a short time. Also, do not charge the Rechargeable Battery for extended
periods of time.
To Erase Memory Effect: Operate the unit until the Rechargeable Battery is
completely discharged, then recharge fully. Repeat this process at least three (3)
times.
Low Battery Indicator
When the Battery Pack in the Handset is
very low and needs to be charged, the
Battery icon flashes.
