I.C. NOTICE 84
Congratulations on your purchase of the Uniden Multi-Handset Cordless System
telephone. This unit is different from conventional cordless telephones. When the base
unit is connected to AC power and a telephone line, it can support up to 10 handsets.
You can now place a fully-featured cordless handset anywhere in your home or office
where AC power is available to connect the handset chargers. Extra handsets also allow
you to establish a 4-way conference call among 2 handsets, the base speakerphone, and
an outside line.
Note: Some illustrations in this manual may differ from the actual unit for explanation
purposes.

Features
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.

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.
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.

GETTING STARTED
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)
The battery may be
purchased by calling
Uniden's Parts
Department (see back
cover page).
note
GETTING STARTED
Low battery alert
When the battery pack is very low, the phone is programmed to eliminate functions
in order to save power.
The battery pack needs to be charged when:
- The empty battery icon appears.
-
Low Battery
appears in the display.
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.

contacts
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.
note
GETTING STARTED
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
•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.
note
GETTING STARTED
Mounting the Base Unit on a Wall
Standard wall plate mounting
This phone can be mounted on any standard wall plate.
1) Make the AC adapter and the telephone line cord
through the hole on the wall mount adapter.
2) Plug the AC adapter into the DC IN 9V jack.
3) Plug the telephone line cord into the TEL LINE
jack.
4) Slide the wall mount adapter into the notches on
the base.
5) Plug the AC adapter into a standard 120V AC wall
outlet. Hook the cord on the notch of the wall
mount adapter.
6) Plug the telephone line cord into the telephone
outlet. Hook the cord on the notch of the wall
mount adapter.
7) Align the mounting slots on the base with the
mounting posts on the wall. Then push in and
down until the phone is firmly seated.
DO NOT use an AC outlet
controlled by a wall
switch.
!
GETTING STARTED
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.
