[7] Setting up the Phone
Choose the best location
When choosing a location for your new phone, here are some
important guidelines you should consider:

power outlet (one which is not connected to a switch).
• The base and handset should be kept away from sources of electrical
noise such as motors, Microwave ovens, and fluorescent lighting.
• For better reception, place the base as high as possible.
• The base should be placed in an open area for optimum range and
reception.

The FCC Wants You To Know
This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC rules and
the requirements adopted by the ACTA. On the bottom of
this equipment is a label that contains, among other
information, a product identifier in the format
US:AAAEQ##TXXXX. If requested, this number must be
provided to the telephone company.
An applicable Universal Service Order Codes (USOC)

REN is separately shown on the label.
If this equipment causes harm to the tel ephone network,
the telephone company will notify you in advance that
temporary discontinuance of service may be required. But

NOTICE: According to telephone company reports, AC
electrical surges, typically resulting from lightning strikes,
are very destructive to telephone equipment connected to
AC power sources. To minimize damage from these types of
surges, a surge arrestor is recommended.
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.
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.
To insure the safety of users, the FCC has established
criteria for the amount of radio frequency energy various
products may produce depend ing on their i ntended usage.
This product has been tested and found to comply with
the FCC’s exposure criteria. For body worn operation, the
FCC RF exposure guidelines were also met when used with
the Uniden accessories supplied or designed for this
product. Use of other accessories may not ensure
compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines and should be
avoided.
Radio Interference
Radio interference may occasionally cause buzzing and
humming in your c ordless handset , or clicking nois es 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 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.
www.uniden.com
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 b e place d near o r on top of a TV or VCR. I f interf erence
is experienced, moving the cordless telephone farther
away from the TV or VCR will often reduce or eliminate the
interference.
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
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.
