This series features AutoTalk™ and AutoStandby™. AutoTalk allows you to answer a call by just removing the handset from the cradle so you don't have to waste time pushing buttons. AutoStandby allows you to hang up by simply returning the handset to the cradle.

To protect you against mis-billed calls that might result from your phone being activated by other equipment, this series has

Random Code™ digital security, which automatically selects one of over

approx. 65,000 digital security codes for the handset and base.

Digital Spread Spectrum Technology uses a wider frequency band than standard digital transmissions. The result is a more secure conversation with the clarity of digital sound, extended range, and minimal interference from other cordless phones.

IntegriSound™ Built in sound quality which provides life-like conversations.

With DirectLink™ mode, you can use 2 or more handsets as radio transceivers (walkie-talkies).

Soft Key Function

"Soft" keys are keys that change function during the operation of the phone. There are three soft keys on the base and three on each handset.

The function of each soft key is determined by the icon that appears directly above it. For example, when the base is in standby mode, pressing soft key 1 will redial the last number. When the base is in talk mode, pressing soft key 1 will mute the microphone. Complete information on the features controlled by the soft keys can be found under each feature.

note

For maximum range:

•Keep the antenna free of obstruction.

•When the handset is not in use place the handset in an upright position.

•Do not hold the handset where you would block the signal.

Correct

Incorrect

•Metal and reinforced concrete may affect cordless telephone performance.

GETTING STARTED

Setting up the Phone

A. Choose the best location

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

• The location should be close to both a phone jack and a continuous power outlet (one which is not connected to a switch).

• The base and handset should be kept away from sources of electrical noise such as motors, microwave ovens, and fluorescent lighting.

• For better reception, place the base as high as possible.

• The base should be placed in an open area for optimum range and reception.

• If your home has specially wired alarm equipment connected to phone line, be sure that installing the system does not disable your alarm equipment. If you have questions about what will disable alarm equipment, contact your telephone company or a qualified installer.

B. Install the rechargeable battery pack into the handset, and charge for at least 15-20 hours before using!

The handset is powered by a rechargeable battery pack. The battery recharges automatically when the handset is placed in the base unit. To maximize the charge capacity of your battery pack, DO NOT plug the telephone cord into the base unit and wall jack until the battery is fully charged.

1) Press down on the handset battery case cover (use the finger indention for a better grip) and slide the cover downward to remove.

2) Turn the battery pack so that the connector with the red and black wires is near the jack inside the battery compartment. Match the connector's wire colors to the polarity label in the battery compartment (the connector notches fit into the grooves of the jack only one way). Push the battery pack connector into the jack until it clicks into place.

3) Make sure you have a good connection by gently pulling on the battery wires. If the connection is secure, the battery jack will remain in place.

4) Place the battery case cover back on the handset and slide it upwards until it clicks into place.

5) Place the handset in the base unit for 15-20 hours without interruption. The base unit's LED light (labeled charge) illuminates once the handset is placed in the base. The LED light will illuminate whether the battery pack is connected or not.

note

The battery may be purchased by calling Uniden's Parts Department (see back cover page).

GETTING STARTED

Low battery alert

When the battery pack is very low, the phone is programmed to eliminate functions in order to save power.

Even when the battery pack is not being used, it will gradually discharge over a long period of time. For optimum performance, be sure to return the handset to the base unit after each telephone call.

The battery pack needs to be charged when:

- The empty battery icon appears.

Low Battery

If the phone is in standby mode, none of keys will operate. If you are on a call, complete your conversation as quickly as possible, and return the handset to the cradle.

Cleaning the battery charging contacts

To maintain a good charge, it is important to clean the charging contacts on both the handset and the base unit once a month. Using water only, dampen a cloth to clean the charging contacts. Then make sure to go back over the charging contacts with a dry cloth before returning the handset to the base to charge.

Caution: Do not use paint thinner, benzene, alcohol, or other chemical products. Doing so may discolor the surface of the telephone and damage the finish.

C. Connect the base unit

1) Connect the AC adapter to the DC IN 9V jack and to a standard 120V AC wall outlet. Connect the AC adapter to a continuous power supply (i.e., an outlet that is not controlled by a switch).

2) Set the base on a desk or tabletop, and place the handset in the base unit. Place the base unit close to the AC outlet so that you can unplug the AC adapter easily.

3) Make sure that the charge LED illuminates. If the LED does not illuminate, check to see that the AC adapter is plugged in and the handset makes good contact with the base charging contacts.

After installing the battery pack in the handset, charge your handset for at least 15-20 hours before plugging into the phone line.

4) Once the handset battery pack is fully charged, connect the telephone line cord to the TEL LINE jack and to a telephone outlet.

If your telephone outlet isn't modular, contact your telephone company for assistance.

note

•Use only the supplied [AD-830] AC adapter. Do not use any other AC adapter.

•Place the power cord so that it does not create a trip hazard or where it could become chafed and create a fire or electrical hazard.

www.uniden.com

Page 15

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.

• Try to mount your phone within 5 feet of a working phone jack to avoid excessive 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) Refer to steps 1 through 7 on page 13 to mount the

telephone.

On the bottom of this equipment is a label that contains, among other information, a product identifier in the format US:AAAEQ##TXXXX. If requested, this number must be provided to the telephone company.

An applicable Universal Service Order Codes (USOC) certification for the jacks used in this equipment is provided (i.e., RJ11C) in the packaging with each piece of approved terminal equipment. A plug and jack used to connect this equipment to the premises wiring and telephone network must comply with the applicable FCC Part 68 rules and requirements adopted by the ACTA. A compliant telephone cord and modular plug is provided with this product. It is designed to be connected to a compatible modular jack that is also compliant. See installation instructions for details.

The REN is used to determine the number of devices that may be connected to a telephone line. Excessive RENs on a telephone line may result in the devices not ringing in response to an incoming call. In most but not all areas, the sum of RENs should not exceed five (5.0). To be certain of the number of devices that may be connected to a line, as determined by the total RENs, contact the local telephone company. For products approved after July 23, 2001, the REN for this product is part of the product identifier that has the format US:AAAEQ##TXXXX. The digits represented by ## are the REN without a decimal point (e.g., 03 is a REN of 0.3). For earlier products, the REN is separately shown on the label.

Also, you will be advised of your right to file a complaint with the FCC if you believe it is necessary.

The telephone company may make changes in its facilities, equipment, operations or procedures that could affect the operation of the equipment. If this happens the telephone company will provide advance notice in order for you to make necessary modifications to maintain uninterrupted service. Please follow instructions for repairing, if any (e.g. battery replacement section); otherwise do not substitute or repair any parts of the device except as specified in this manual.

PRECAUTIONS & WARRANTY [82]

Should you experience trouble with this equipment, please contact Uniden customer service at 800-297-1023. If the equipment is causing harm to the telephone network, the telephone company may request that you disconnect the equipment until the problem is resolved.

NOTICE: According to telephone company reports, AC electrical surges, typically resulting from lightning strikes, are very destructive to telephone equipment connected to AC power sources. To minimize damage from these types of surges, a surge arrestor is recommended.

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 owner's manual, could void your authority to operate this product.

This device complies with part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. Privacy of communications, may not be ensured when using this phone. To insure the safety of users, the FCC has established criteria for the amount of radio frequency energy various products may produce depending on their intended usage. This product has been tested and found to comply with the FCC's exposure criteria. For body worn operation, the FCC RF exposure guidelines were also met when used with the Uniden accessories supplied or designed for this product. Use of other accessories may not ensure compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines and should be avoided.

Radio Interference

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.
