Digital Spread Spectrum Technology
utilizes a “wider frequency band“ vs. a
“single narrow band“ used in standard digital transmissions. The 2.4 GHz
frequency range was recently released to commercial communications. The
result is a more secure conversation with the clarity of digital sound, extended
range, and minimal interference from other cordless phones.
Random CodeTM
digital security automatically selects one of over 65,000 codes
for the handset and base.
These features enhance your phone´s security and also prevents unauthorized
calls as a result of your phone being activated by other equipment.
Throughout this manual, terms such as Standby and Talk Mode are used. Below
is the terminology explanation.

Changing the Digital Security Code
The digital security code is an identification code used to connect the handset
and the base unit. Normally, setting the code is not necessary.
The first time you charge your handset, the security code is automatically set.

In the rare situation that you suspect another cordless telephone is using the
same security code, you can change the code.
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 next time the

Technical Information
The FCC wants you to know!
Telephone Line Problems
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. The equipment cannot be used
on public coin phone service provided by the
telephone company. Connection to party line service
is subject to state tariffs. (Contact the state public
utility commission, public service commission or
corporation commission for information.)
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.
Below is some information that might concern you
while using your new phone.
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.
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.
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
[ 56 ] A D D I TI O N A L I N FO R M ATI O N
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
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.
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.
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.
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 broadcasted 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.
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.
