Expanding Your Phone

Adding accessory handsets

Your phone supports a total of six cordless handsets, including any that were supplied with your phone. You can now
place a fully-featured cordless handset anywhere AC power is available to connect the charging cradle.

•

Your phone is compatible with the following Uniden DECT accessory handsets: DECT2015, DECT2035 and
DECT2005. (Please visit our website at www.uniden.com.au for Australian models or www.uniden.co.nz for New

•

Zealand models for the most up-to-date list of compatible handsets.)

•

For instructions on connecting the charging cradle, see page 8.

•

If you purchase any accessory handsets separately, you must register the handsets to the base before you can
use them. (Accessory handsets that come packaged with a base are already registered to that base.)

Registering accessory handsets

When charged, registered handsets display a handset ID number. Handsets that have not been registered display:

↔

To register a DECT2005 accessory handset:

1)

Charge the handset for 15-20 hours.

2)

Place the handset in the base cradle for about thirty seconds. Handset Registering will appear in the LCD.

3)

When the handset has registered to the base, the LCD will display Registration complete then show the handset
ID number.

4)

On the handset, press and hold # until the handset beeps and displays Handset Registering.

5)

When the handset has registered to the base, the LCD will display Registration complete then show the handset
ID number.

If the display shows Registration failed, repeat the process again.

Note: If a handset has ever been registered to a base, reset the handset before you register it to a new base (see

Resetting the Handset on page 60). Or to use multiple bases, see the next section.

Using Multiple Bases

The handsets supplied with your phone can be registered to a total of four different bases. Compatible bases include
the DECT 2015 and DECT 2035 series. (See our website or contact Customer Service for an up-to-date list of
compatible models.)

Note: To confi rm how many bases the handset is registered to, open the Select Base submenu (follow the step 1 of

Selecting the base on page 15). Press END to close the list and return to standby.

Registering the handset to another base

To register a handset to another base:

1)

Make sure the handset battery is fully charged.

2)

If the other base has an LCD display:

•

With the phone in standby, press MENU/SELECT on the base. Move the cursor to select the Register
Handset menu, and then press MENU/SELECT. Handset Registering will appear.

If the other base does not have an LCD display:

adapter. Keep holding the Find Handest key until the charge LED starts to blink.
*This key might be labeled Find or Find HS.

3)

On the handset, press MENU/SELECT. Select the Register Base menu. Handset Registering will appear in the
display. (After step 2, you have thirty seconds to complete this step 3 before the system returns to standby.)

4)

Wait approximately thirty seconds. Registration complete will be displayed to indicate the handset has been
registered to the base and a handset ID will be automatically assigned. The handset assigns its own ID to this
base, too. (Since the base ID is based on the order in which the handset was registered to the different bases, a
base may have different IDs on each handset.)

If Registration failed appears in the LCD, please try these steps again.

Note: The handset will stay connected to the new base until you select a different base (see below).

Selecting the base

After you register your handset to more than one base you can set the handset to automatically search for a new
base if the base it’s currently connected is unavailable or out of range. You can also manually select which base you
want the handset to connect to; for example, if you have one base with an answering machine, you can connect to
that base to check messages from the handset.

1)

With the phone in standby, press MENU/SELECT. Select the Handset Setup menu, and then the Select Base
submenu.

2)

Move the cursor to select the base you want to connect to, or choose Auto to have the handset automatically
search for and select base.

3)

Press MENU/SELECT. Searching will appear in the display.

4)

When the base is found, the handset will return to standby. If the base is not found, “Searching” continues
to appear. You can repeat the procedure listed above to return back to the original connection or to fi nd the
different base.

Note: You cannot change bases during a call.

Setting Up the Phonebook

Each handset has its own separate phonebook that holds up to seventy names and numbers. When a handset’s
phonebook is full, the handset beeps and shows Memory Full on the display. You cannot add any names and
numbers in that handset’s phonebook until you delete some of the existing ones.

You can also use the phonebook entries to store a group of numbers (up to twenty digits) that you may need to enter
once your call connects. This is referred to as chain dialing. (See Chain dialing from the phonebook on page 32.)

To store names and numbers in your phonebook, please follow these steps:

1.

With the phone in standby, press (on the left side of the four-way key).

Use the keypad to enter a name for this entry; the name can contain up to sixteen characters. (See Entering

Text from Your Handset on page 22 for instructions on entering text.) If you do not want to enter a name for this
entry, your phone will store this entry as No Name. Press MENU/SELECT when you are fi nished.

4.

Enter the number for this entry (EDIT NUMBER).
Once you have stored a name, Edit Number appears next. Use the number

keypad to enter the phone number; the phone number can contain up to
twenty digits. If you need the phone to pause between digits when it’s dialing
(for example, to enter an extension or an access code), press REDIAL/
PAUSE to insert a two-second pause. You will see a P in the display. You can
also use more than one pause together if two seconds is not long enough.
Each pause counts as one digit. Press MENU/SELECT when you are
fi nished.

Battery Information

Battery life

With average use, your handset battery provides more than ten hours of talk time and approximately seven days
of standby time. You can achieve optimum battery life and performance by returning the handset to the base or
charging cradle after each use. When your handset is left off of the cradle, the battery will gradually discharge even
if the handset is not being used. The actual talk time duration will be reduced in proportion to the amount of time the
handset is off of the cradle.

Cleaning the charging contacts

To maintain a good charge, clean the charging contacts on the handset
once a month. Dampen a cloth with plain water. Gently rub the damp cloth
over the charging contacts until all visible dirt is removed. Dry the contacts
thoroughly before returning the handset to the cradle.

Caution: Do not use paint thinner, alcohol, or other chemical products.
Doing so may discolor the surface of the telephone and damage the fi nish.

Weak or Hard to Hear Audio

If the caller’s voice sounds weak or soft, the signal might be blocked by large metal objects or walls; you might also
be too far from the base, or the handset’s battery may be weak.

•

Try adjusting the volume of the earpiece (see page 36) or the audio tone (see page 37).

Try moving around while you’re on a call or moving closer to the base to see if the sound gets louder.

•

Make sure the handset’s battery is fully charged.

Noise or Static on the Line

The most common cause of noise or static on a cordless phone is interference: other wireless or electronic devices
can radiate energy that disturbs the radio signal between the base and the handset (much like overhead power lines
can cause static on your car radio). Some common household sources of interference are

•

electrical appliances, especially microwave ovens

•

computer equipment, especially wireless LAN equipment and DSL modems

•

radio-based wireless devices, such as room monitors, wireless controllers, or wireless headphones or speakers

•

large fl orescent light fi xtures (particularly ones that give off a “buzzing” noise)

•

other services that use your phone line, like alarm systems, intercom systems, or broadband Internet service

For static on only one handset or in a specifi c location: For static on more than one handset:

Check nearby for one of the common interference

•
sources.
Try moving the handset away from a suspected

•
source, or try moving the suspected source so it’s not
between the handset and the base.

Check near the base for the source of interference.

•
Try moving the base away from a suspected source,

Installing a telephone line fi lter or DSL fi lter

Any broadband Internet service that uses your telephone
line might interfere with standard phones. The most common
type of these services, DSL, often causes static on your
telephone. Fortunately, an easy-to-install fi lter removes this
static from the line. Technicians who install DSL service
usually leave several fi lters for the customers; if you can’t

Just plug the DSL fi lter into the telephone wall jack and then
plug your phone’s base into the fi lter. Make a test call to
make sure the noise is gone.

Resetting the Handset

You may need to reset your handset in the following instances:

•

You lose a handset and purchase a new one.

•

You get the message Registration Failed when you try to register the handset.

•

You are unable to register any handsets to the base.

Troubleshooting

•

When you register new handsets to the base, the handset IDs do not match. (For example, the handset registers
as “Handset #4” but you only have two handsets.)

•

When you are instructed to by one of Uniden’s call center representatives.

1.

Select the base you want to de-register the handset from (see Selecting the base on page 15).

2.

Press and hold END and # for more than fi ve seconds. Select Deregister HS.

3.

Select the handset which you are operating, and then press MENU/SELECT.

4.

The phone will ask you to confi rm the deregistration. Select Yes. The selected handset will clear its registration
information only from the base it is currently connected to, and then delete the link to the base from its own
memory.

5.

When the base information is deleted, the handset displays Handset not registered-place handset on base to
register. See your Owner’s Manual for help.

6.

Re-register the handset to the base (see Registering accessory handsets on page 13).

If the handset cannot contact the base, it will display Searching. Make sure the handset is in range of the base and
the base is connected to power; you can also reset the handset without the base (see the next section).

Resetting the Handset Without the Base

If your original base is not available for some reason, you can still reset the handset and use it with another base.

Press and hold END and # for at least fi ve seconds.

1.
Move the cursor to select Base Unavailable and then press MENU/SELECT.

2.
Select the base which you want to de-register from, and then press MENU/SELECT. Base Unavailable appears.

3.
Move the cursor to select Yes, and then press MENU/SELECT. You hear a confi rmation tone, and the handset

4.
deletes its own base information without contacting the base. If the handset was registered to only one base,
it displays Handset not registered-place handset on base to register. See your Owner’s Manual for help. If the
handset is still registered to another base, it searches for the other base and then returns to standby.

Register the handset to the new base (see Registering accessory handsets on page 13).

Changing the Line Mode for Multiple Extensions

service may recommend changing the line mode if you have any of the following problems:

•

Your phone keeps ringing after someone answers on an extension phone.

•

Your answering system doesn’t stop recording when you answer on an extension phone.

•

Caller ID displays briefl y and then clears.

1.

If you have multiple bases, select the base that is having problems (see page 15).

2.

Press MENU/SELECT.

3.

Select the Global Setup menu, and then the Set Line Mode submenu.
If Instructed by Customer Service Press [select] appears. Press MENU/SELECT.

4.
Move the cursor to select Type - A, Type - B, or Off.

5.
Press MENU/SELECT. You will hear a confi rmation tone.

6.

Traveling Out of Range

When the handset is in standby, the handset will display Handset Out Of Range.
During a call, if you move your handset too far from your base, noise may increase. If you pass the range limit of the

base, the handset will beep, display Out Of Range, and then go to standby. The base will maintain the connection
for thirty seconds after the handset goes out of range. If you move the handset back within range of the base within
thirty seconds, press TALK/FLASH or
