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 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.
note
•If you are not sure of
your dialing system,
make a trial call. If the
call connects, leave
the setting as is.
Otherwise, set for
pulse dialing.
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 8 on page 8 to mount the telephone.

Changing the Digital Security Code
To protect you against misbilled calls which might result from your phone being activated by
other equipment, the cordless phone provides AutoSecureTM (which electrically locks your
phone when the handset is on the base) and Random CodeTM digital security which
automatically selects one of over 262,000 digital security codes for the handset and base.
If the handset battery pack is completely discharged or the battery pack is removed, the
digital security code will be lost. If this happens, a new security code is set automatically
the next time the battery pack is charged.
In the rare situation that you suspect another cordless telephone is using the same security
code, you can change the code.
1) Remove the handset from the base unit. Press and hold the find hs key on the base.
2) While holding the find hs key, place the handset on the base unit and leave the handset
on the base for more than 3 seconds. A new random security code is set.

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.
Rechargeable Nickel-Cadmium
Batteries Must Be Recycled or
Disposed of Properly
The FCC Wants You To Know
•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.
•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
information on where to return the used battery. Please call 1-800-8-
BATTERY 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.
•RBRC® is a registered trademark of the Rechargeable Battery Recycling
Corporation.
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.
Your telephone compiles with Part 68 of FCC Rules. You must, upon
request, provide the FCC registration number and the REN to your
telephone company. Both numbers are on the base unit.
11.To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble this product.
Take it to qualified service personnel when service or repair work is
required. Opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous
voltages or other risks. Incorrect reassembly can cause electric shock
when the appliance is subsequently used.
12.Unplug this product from the wall outlet and refer servicing to
qualified service personnel under the following conditions:
A. When the power supply cord is damaged or frayed.
B. If liquid has been spilled into the product.
Note:
You must not connect your phone to:
• coin-operated systems
• most electronic key telephone systems
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.
C. If the product has been exposed to rain or water.
D. If the product does not operate normally when following the
operating instructions. (Adjust only those controls that are
covered by the operating instructions. Improper adjustment of
other controls may result in damage and will often require
extensive repair work by a qualified technician.)
The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is
intended to alert the user to the presence of important
operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in
the literature accompanying the appliance.
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.
E. If the product has been dropped or the cabinet has been damaged.
F. If the product exhibits a distinct change in performance.
13.Do not use the telephone to report a gas leak in the vicinity of the
leak.

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 warranty service.
WARRANTOR: UNIDEN AMERICA CORPORATION (“Uniden”)
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. (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.
• The base can be placed on a desk or tabletop or mounted on a standard
telephone wall plate.
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.
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.
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.
• You should charge your new phone for 15-20 hours before completing
the installation or using the handset.
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 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, you need to change to
a different channel.
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.
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.
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.
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 delete/channel key to
select a channel that provides the clearest communication.
• Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.
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.
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 back of the base.
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.
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:
NOTE:
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.
