Welcome
Congratulations on your purchase of the Uniden TXC580 optional
handset and charger. This additional handset is for use with the
Uniden TRU5865 or TRU5885 base. You can place a fully featured
cordless handset anywhere in your home where AC power is available
to connect the handset charging cradle. The original base will support
up to 2 handsets (the original handset and one TXC580 handset).
The TXC580 will not be an alternative of the original handset,
if the original handset is damaged.
Important
The TXC580 will not operate unless it has been registered to a
Uniden TRU5865 or TRU5885. Before the additional handset can be
used, the battery must be charged and it must be registered with
the base.
This manual describes only the instructions specific to the
additional handset. For detailed operation, refer to the owner’s
manual supplied with the original unit (read “Expanding Your
Phone” chapter first).
