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.

Warning!

Please do not attempt to unplug any appliance during an electrical storm.

Caution: Changes or modifications to this product not expressly

approved by Uniden, or operation of this product in any
way other than as detailed by this Operating Guide, could
void your authority to operate this product.

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.

Telephone Line Problems

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.

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.

6 EX 905/925

Radio Interference

Radio interference may occasionally cause buzzing and humming in your
cordless Handset, or clicking noises in the Base Unit. 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 telephoneor other source of interference.
If you cannot eliminate this type of interference, you need to change to a
different channel.

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.

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.

EX 905/925 7

Installation

Selecting a Location

Before choosing a location for your new phone, there are some
important guidelines you should consider:

ò 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.)

ò Keep the Base Unit and Handset away from sources of electrical noise

such as motors or fluorescent lighting.

ò Be sure there is sufficient space to fully extend the Base Unit antenna.
ò The Base Unit can be placed on a desk or tabletop or mounted on a

standard AT&T or GTE wall plate.

ò You should charge your new phone for 15-20 hours before

completing the installation or using the Handset.

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.

Hard-wired 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.

Connecting the Telephone Cords

Consider these safety guidelines before connecting the telephone cords:

Caution!

ò Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.
ò Never touch uninsulated telephone wires or terminals unless the

telephone line has been disconnected.

ò Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.

8 EX 905/925

Applying Power to the Base Unit

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, connect the adapter as
shown below.

Wrap the power cord around
the strain relief notch on the
bottom of the Base Unit.

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.

Adapter Safety Feature

The AC adapter furnished with
this phone may be equipped
with a polarized line plug — a
plug having one blade wider
than the other. This plug will fit
into the power outlet only one
way. If you are unable to insert
the plug fully into the outlet, try
reversing the plug.

Do Not alter the shape of the blades of the polarized plug!

If you cannot plug the AC adapter into the outlet, contact someone

[

about replacing the outlet.

Direct Wall Mounting

If you do not have a standard wall plate, you can mount your phone
directly on a wall. Before mounting your phone, consider the following:

ò Select a location away from electrical cables, pipes, or other items

behind the mounting location that could cause a hazard when
inserting screws into the wall.

ò Make sure the wall material is capable of supporting the weight of the

Base Unit and Handset.

ò Use #10 screws with anchoring devices suitable for the wall material

where the Base Unit will be placed.

1. Insert two mounting screws
3-15/16 inches apart.

Allow about 3/16 of an inch
between the wall and screw heads
for mounting the phone.
