Important Safety Instructions!
When using your telephone equipment, basic safety precautions
should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric
shock and injury to persons, including the following:
yDo not use this product near water, for example, near a
bath tub, wash bowl, kitchen sink or laundry tub, in a wet
basement or near a swimming pool.
yAvoid using a telephone (other than a cordless type) during
an electrical storm. There may be a remote risk of electric
shock from lightning.
yDo not use the telephone to report a gas leak in the vicinity of
the leak.
yUse only the power cord and batteries indicated in this
manual. Do not dispose of batteries in a fire. They may
explode. Check with local codes for possible special disposal
instructions.
yDo not place the handset in any charging cradle without the
battery installed and the battery cover securely in place.

Using the Handset
yWhen the handset registers to a base, it adapts its software
to match that specific base. This means that the exact
features and operation of the handset will vary slightly
depending on which base you register the handset to. Refer
to the user guide for the base you're registering the handset
to for feature descriptions.
yAll features and operation for the handset are described
in the user's guide for one of the bases listed under the
Compatible Bases section.
yUser guides for all Uniden phones are available on our
website for free downloading.

Some important things to remember:
yOnly register one charger at a time. If more than one charger
is in registration mode at the same time, they can interfere
with each other.
yIf you want to use the
base, just register the charger to the new base. The charger
automatically erases the link to the old base when it
registers to the new one.
yOnly register the charger to one base at a time. If more than
one base is in registration mode at the same time, you can't
control which base the charger registers to.

Picking the best spot
The best spot for the
charger is as far from the
base as possible while
still maintaining a good
signal, or near the edge of
the base’s coverage area.
To find the edge of the
coverage area:
1. Stand near the base
and make a call on
the handset.

MULTIRANGE
2. While on the call, carry the handset away from the base
towards the general area where you want to put the
charger.
3. Watch the signal strength icon on the handset. Make a note
where the icon drops from 4 bars to 3 bars.
4. Continue walking away from the base. Make a note where
the signal strength icon drops from 3 bars to 2 or if you
start to hear noise on the line (which indicates the signal is
getting weaker).
5. Place the charger anywhere inside the range where the
signal strength icon showed 3 bars and the handset had a
clear signal with no noise.

Battery Information
yFully charged, the battery should provide about 10 hours of
talk time and about 7 days of standby time. For best results,
return the handset to the cradle after each call to keep it
fully charged.
yKeep an eye on the battery status icon. When the battery
gets too low, the handset shows a low battery alert. If you
hear a strange beep during a call, check the display: if you
see the low battery alert, finish your conversation as quickly
as possible and return the handset to the cradle. If the
handset is in standby, none of the keys will operate.

yWith normal use, the battery should last about one year.
Replace the battery when the talk time becomes short even
when the battery is charged. To buy a replacement battery,
call the Parts Department listed on the front cover.
