Read this section before using your PCD1000 cellular telephone.
The PCD1000 is a radio transmitter and receiver. When the
phone is on, the antenna is the part of the phone that sends out
and receives radio frequency (RF) energy in the 824 to 894 MHz
range using common frequency modulation (FM) techniques.
When you use your phone, the cellular system handling your call
controls the power level (usually 0.006 watts to 3 watts)at which
your phone transmits.
In 1991, the institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers
(IEEE), and in 1992 the American National Standards Institute
(ANSI) updated the 1982 ANSI Standard for safety levels with
respect to human exposure to RF energy. Over 120 scientists,
engineers, and physicians from universities, government health
agencies, and industry, after reviewing the available body of
research, developed this updated Standard. In March, 1993, the
Federal Communication Commission (FCC) proposed the
adoption of this updated Standard. For the safe and efficient
operation of your phone, observe these guidelines:
1. Warning: Uniden America Corporation does not represent
this unit to have been waterproofed. To reduce the risk of
electrical shock, fire hazard, or damage to the unit, do not
expose to rain or moisture.
2. Do not operate this cellular phone when holding the antenna,
or when any person is within 4 inches of the antenna. To limit
RF exposure, control the duration of your calls.
3. Do not use the phone with a damaged antenna. If a damaged
antenna comes into contact with the skin, a minor burn may
result. If the antenna is damaged, replace it with a
Uniden-approved antenna before operating the phone.
Contact your Uniden dealer for more information.
4. When using your phone while driving, Uniden recommends
that you only use the phone when the vehicle is stationary.
This ensures that you maintain full attention to driving while
the vehicle is in motion. You are responsible for driving safely
and using reasonable judgment while using your cellular
phone.
5. RF energy from cellular telephones may affect some personal
medical devices (pacemakers, hearing aids, etc.) Consult
your physician or the device manufacturer for information
regarding the effect of RF energy on personal medical
devices.
6. Do not use this cellular phone in an airplane.
7. Do not allow children to play with the phone. It is not a toy.
Children could hurt themselves or others (by poking
themselves or others in the eye with the antenna, for
example). Children could also damage the phone or make
calls that increase your telephone bills.
8. Obey the warning signs that require mobile radios to be
turned off. This is typically required near construction sites
where blasting occurs, and in health care facilities.
9. Turn your phone off when in any area with a potentially
explosive atmosphere. These areas include fueling areas
such as gas stations, below deck on boats, chemical transfer
and storage facilities, and areas where the air contains
particles (grain, dust, or metal powders.)
You have chosen to enter the world of cellular
telephone technology with one of the finest
portable cellular phones available today, the
PCD1000. Now, you can place or receive calls
from anywhere there is cellular coverage. Your
PCD1000 can go with you anywhere so that
you’re never out of touch: in your car, on the
beach, at the golf course, or even just for a
walk in the woods. With the Roam feature, you
can also use your unit in most metropolitan
areas when you travel away from your own
area. The many standard features on the
PCD1000 make calling quick and convenient.
And the easy-to-use Menu functions help you
customize your PCD1000 for your personal
applications.
We’re confident you will be proud to own the
PCD1000, and to make sure you understand all
its convenient features, please take the time to
read this Operating Guide. It will help you use
the technology and convenience of cellular
communications. Be sure to fill in the
Registration Card found at the end of this
Guide, cut it out and mail it.

Caution!
The AC Adapter included with this phone may be equipped with a
polarized alternating line plug (a plug with 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. If the plug should still fail to fit, contact an electrician to
replace the obsolete outlet. Do not alter the shape of the blades to

Battery Alarm
A Battery Warning Tone sounds when the battery charge is low. The battery icon flashes and the
message,
Battery Memory Effect
RECHARGE BATTERY
, displays on the LCD.
Rechargeable batteries can develop a “memory” (reduced charge capacity) caused by repeated
charge and discharge cycles.
Rechargeable batteries that have developed this effect will not operate to their fullest capacity.
To Avoid Memory Effect: Operate the unit until the Rechargeable Battery is completely discharged
before recharging. Do not “top off” the charge after using for a short time.
Also, do not charge the Rechargeable Battery for extended periods of time.
To Erase Memory Effect: Operate the unit until the Rechargeable Battery is completely discharged,
then recharge fully. Repeat this process at least three (3) times.

Roaming
Many carriers (airtime providers) make arrangements with
carriers in other cities to allow use of mobile telephones in
areas other than your Home area. If you are traveling in an
area where cellular service is provided, and you wish to
use your cellular phone, check with your Cellular Service
Company before leaving your Home area. They will give
you information about registering and operating your
cellular phone in a particular area.
In some cities, depending upon your Cellular Service
Company, no registration will be required. You may dial
your phone as if you were traveling in your Home area.
However, if you call a number local to the area in which
you are roaming, first dial the area code of the local
number (no preceding 1), then the rest of the phone
number. Keep in mind that calls to your Home area may
incur long distance charges.
Other areas will require advance registration with a major
credit card, or may require that all long distance calls be
dialed using a telephone credit card or other charge
method (collect, third telephone number). Your Cellular
Service Company can give you the information before you
make the trip. If that is not possible, simply dialing a call
will, in many cases, provide needed information.
You may hear a recording (no airtime charge) that gives
procedures for roaming calls and connects you
immediately (during business hours) to a registration clerk.
If you cannot obtain roaming services on one carrier, try
switching to the other type. It is important to remember
that the
authorized to make calls; only that a system other than the
Home system is detected.

SID (System Identification)
In general, metropolitan areas are served by more than
one service provider. Under certain circumstances you
may be roaming in an area that has two A systems or two
B systems that overlap, and you could be charged two
roaming charges. To prevent this double charging,
program in the System Identification number (SID) for that
area, and then activate the number when you are in that
location. (You will get the SID from the service provider in
that location.)
