The location should be close to both a phone jack and a continuous power outlet which is not switchable.
Keep the base and handset away from sources of electrical noise such as motors, microwave ovens, and fluorescent lighting.
Be sure there is sufficient space to raise the base antenna to a vertical position.
The base can be placed on a desk, tabletop, or mounted on a standard wall plate.

DD.. CChhoooossee tthhee ddiiaall mmooddee Most phone systems use tone dialing which sends DTMF tones through the phone line. However some phone systems still use pulse dialing such as in rural areas. The default setting is tone dialing. Depending on your dialing system, set the mode as follows:
1)Press and hold
ffllaasshh
until you hear a confirmation tone.
The current setting appears next to Dial Mode.
2)To set the dial mode for pulse dialing, press
# .
Or to set the dial mode for tone dialing, press
*
/tone . A conf irmation tone sounds to indicate the
setting is complete.
If you are not sure of your dialing system, set for tone dialing. Make a trial call. If the call connects, leave the setting as is, otherwise set for pulse dialing.
If your phone system requires pulse dialing and you need to send DTMF tones for certain situations during a call, you may "switch-over" to tone dialing. (Refer to "Tone Dialing Switch-over" on page 17.)
Modular
Make sure your battery pack is fully charged before choosing the dial mode.
5)Connect the telephone line cord to the
TTEELL LLIINNEE

If you dont have a standard wall plate, you can mount your phone directly to the wall. Before doing this, consider the following:
Avoid electrical cables, pipes, or other items behind the mounting location that could cause a hazard when inserting screws into the wall.
Try to mount your phone within 5 feet of a working phone jack to avoid excessive cord lengths.
Make sure the wall material is capable of supporting the weight of the base and handset.
Use #10 screws (minimum length of 1-3/8 inches) with anchoring devices suitable for the wall material where the base unit will be placed.
1)Insert two mounting screws into the wall, (with their
appropriate anchoring device), 3-15/16 inches apart. Allow about 1/8 of an inch between the wall and screw heads for mounting the phone.
2)Set the retainer clip if necessary.
3)Refer to steps 1 through 9 on page 11 and 12 to mount
the telephone.
8)Raise the antenna to a vertical position.

Redial
The
rreeddiiaall//pp
key redials the last number dialed. The redialed number can be up to 32
digits long.
The tone feature only applies when the dial mode is set to pulse.
Tone Dialing Switch-over
Some telephone companies use equipment that require pulse dialing (sometimes referred to as rotary dialing). If you need to enter tone dialing digits, you can switch-over to tone dialing during the call. An example of this could be entering your bank account number after you have called your bank. The digits of your bank account can be entered using DTMF tones.
Initially make your call with the pulse dialing mode. Once your call connects, press
*
/tone . Enter the desired number (like in the example above, the bank account number). These digits will be sent as tone dialing. This special number can be stored in a memory location. This is referred to as Chain Dialing (See page 24). Once the call ends, the tone mode is canceled and pulse dialing resumes.
Traveling Out-of-Range
During a call, as you begin to move your handset too far from your base unit, noise increases. If you pass the range limits of the base unit, your call will terminate within 30 seconds.

INFORMATION
The digital security code is an identif ication 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. (See "About the digital security code", page 4.) In the rare situation that you suspect another cordless telephone is using the same security code, you can change the code.
1)Remove the handset from the base unit. Press and hold
ppaaggee
on the base.
2)While the handset is emitting the paging sound, place the handset on the base unit holding
ppaaggee
. The paging sound stops. Leave the handset on the base for more than 5 seconds or until flashing stops. A new random security code is set.
Changing the Digital Security 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 batter y pack is charged.

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 owners 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.)
Below is some information that might concern you while using your new phone.
RRaannggee
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 qualif ication 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.
TTeelleepphhoonnee LLiinnee PPrroobblleemmss
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.
RRaaddiioo IInntteerrffeerreennccee
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

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.
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.
MMoorree TThhaann OOnnee CCoorrddlleessss TTeelleepphhoonnee
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.
CCoorrddlleessss TTeelleepphhoonnee PPrriivvaaccyy
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.
