Congratulations on purchasing your new Uniden Corded/Cordless Telephone! Your new phone system
comes with a corded base unit and a cordless handset. The corded base allows you the convenience,
safety and security to make and receive calls during a power failure. In addition to the corded base, your
new phone has a full featured cordless handset and charger that can be placed anywhere in your home
where you have AC power and it does not require you to plug the handset in to a telephone line.
Note: Illustrations in this manual are used for explanation purposes.
Some illustrations in this manual may differ from the actual unit.
• For your convenience, voice prompts will guide you through the
base main menu (except LCD Contrast settings).
• To cancel your selection and return to standby, press

(play/stop) on the base.
• If you do not press a key within 30 seconds, the phone will time
out and exit the menu. When setting Day and Time, the timeout period is extended to two minutes.

Keep both the base and handset antennas free of obstruction.
When the handset is not in use, place the handset in an upright position.
Metal and reinforced concrete may affect cordless telephone performance.
There’s an easy way to test your connection: try making a call from your base. If your call connects, your
phone’s settings are fi ne. If your call does not connect:
Check the AC adapter cord. Make sure it is securely connected to the DC IN 9V connector and to a standard
AC power outlet.
Your new phone has visual ringers located at the top of the base unit and at the top of the cordless handset.
These visual ringers will fl ash during incoming calls, so if you are in a noisy
work environment you will be able to see when the phone is ringing. The
phone comes with a switch for base visual ringer control, so you can turn the
visual ringers off when you do not want the base to fl ash brightly during
incoming calls.
The visual ringer hi/lo/off switch allows you to set the brightness and turn
off the visual ringer on the base. You can adjust the brightness by selecting
one of three options: high, low and off. If you set the switch to off, the visual
ringer on the base will not fl ash at all during incoming calls.
10) Flip the retainer from front to back. Slide it back into the slot so that the lip of the retainer is up and the
oval is down. The retainer holds the handset in place.
Direct Wall Mounting
If you don’t 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.
3mm
• Try to mount your phone within 1.5m 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 35mm) 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), 100mm apart. Allow about 3mm between the wall and screw heads for
mounting the phone.

INSTALLING THE PHONE
2) Refer to steps 1 through 10 on page 15 to mount the telephone.
The cordless handset is powered by a rechargeable battery pack. The battery recharges automatically
when the handset is placed in the charger.
1) Connect the AC adapter to the DC IN 9V jack and to a standard 240V AC wall outlet.
CAUTION: Use only the Uniden AAD-600S(M) AC
adapter.
2) Set the charger on a desk or tabletop, and place the
handset in the charger with the keypad facing forward.
3) Make sure that the charge light illuminates. If the
charge light does not illuminate, check to see that the
AC adapter is plugged in and the handset makes good
contact with the charging contacts.
4) Charge the handset battery pack for at least 15-20
hours before using your new cordless handset for the
fi rst time.
5) To test your connection, try making a call from the cordless handset. If your call does not connect,
check to make sure the battery is fully charged. If you see LOW BATTERY on the cordless handset
display, check to make sure the battery is properly connected. To check the battery, slide the battery
compartment door open and check the battery cables to ensure a tight and proper connection. If your
handset still does not work, please contact Uniden’s Customer Service department. Please see inside
the back cover for contact information.
Line up the holes on each side of the cordless handset.
To attach the beltclip, insert into the holes on each side of the
handset. Press down until it clicks.
To remove the beltclip, pull either side of the beltclip to release
the tabs from the holes.
Installing the Optional Headset
Your cordless handset may be used with an optional headset. To use this feature,
insert the headset plug into the headset jack. Your phone is ready for hands-free
conversations. Headsets may be purchased by contacting Uniden. Please see inside
back cover or visit www.uniden.com.au for Australian model or www.uniden.co.nz for
New Zealand model for contact information.

• Flash
• A special ring tone will sound during a power
failure and you will not be able to control the
volume setting of this ring.
With average use, your battery talk time will be approximately 6 hours and standby time will be
approximately 6 days. For optimum performance, be sure to return the cordless handset to the charging
cradle after each call. If the cordless handset is left off of the charger, the actual talk time duration will be
reduced respective to the amount of time the handset is off the cradle.
Note: Do not place the power cord where it creates a trip hazard or where it could become chafed and
create a fi re or electrical hazard.
Low battery alert
When the battery pack is very low, the cordless handset is programmed to eliminate functions in order to
save power. The battery pack needs to be charged when the cordless handset
shows LOW BATTERY CHARGE HANDSET. None of the cordless handset
keys will operate until the cordless handset is fully charged. If you are on a call
and LOW BATTERY appears, complete your conversation as quickly as
possible, and return the handset to the charger.
Battery Replacement and Handling
With normal use, your cordless phone’s battery should last approximately one year. To order replacement
batteries or adapters, please see inside back cover or visit www.uniden.com.au for Australian model or
www.uniden.co.nz for New Zealand model for contact information.
MAINTENANCE
Note: When replacing batteries, the information stored in the phone’s memory will only be retained for
30 minutes after the battery pack is removed. This includes volume, ringer tone and last number dialed.
You will want to replace the battery as quickly as possible in order to avoid losing your cordless handset
settings.
Warning: To avoid the risk of personal injury or property damage from fi re or electrical shock, only
use the Uniden battery model and Uniden adapter model specifi cally designated for this product.
Caution:
• Use only the specifi ed Uniden battery pack (BT-905S).

one way.) Match the wire colors to the polarity label in
the battery compartment, connect the battery and
listen for a click to insure connection.
3) Make sure you have a good connection by slightly
pulling on the battery wires. If the connection is secure,
the battery jack will remain in place.
MAINTENANCE
4) Place the battery case cover back on the handset and
slide it upwards until it clicks into place.
Note: Use only the Uniden BT-905S rechargeable battery pack supplied with your cordless telephone.
To maintain a good charge, clean the charging contacts on both the cordless handset and charger once a
month. Dampen a cloth with plain water. Gently rub the damp cloth over the charging contacts until all
visible dirt is removed. Dry the contacts thoroughly before returning the handset to the cradle.
Caution:
Do not use paint thinner, alcohol, or other chemical products.
Doing so may discolor the surface of the telephone and damage the fi nish.
During a call, if you move your cordless handset too far away from your base, noise may increase. If you
pass the range limits of the base, your call will terminate within one minute.
