Setting up the Phone

Do the following steps:

A. Choose the best location C. Connect the base unit B. Install the rechargeable battery pack into the handset

A. Choose the best location

Before choosing a location for your new phone, read the INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS included in the PRECAUTIONS AND IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS brochure. Here are some important guidelines you should consider:

• The location should be close to both a phone jack and a continuous power outlet which is not switchable.

• Keep the base and handset away from sources of electrical noise such as motors, microwave ovens, and fluorescent lighting.

• Be sure there is sufficient space to raise the base antenna to a vertical position.

• The base can be placed on a desk, tabletop, or mounted on a standard wall plate.

Avoid excessive moisture, extremely low temperatures, dust, mechanical vibration, or shock

Avoid heat sources, such as radiators, air ducts, and sunlight

Avoid television sets and other electronic equipment

Avoid noise sources such as a window by a street with heavy traffic

Avoid microwave ovens

Avoid personal computers

Avoid other cordless telephones

Choose a central location

If your home has specially wired alarm equipment connected to the telephone line, be sure that installing the system does not disable your alarm equipment.

If you have questions about what will disable your alarm equipment, contact your telephone company or a qualified installer.

GETTING STARTED [ 9 ]www.uniden.com

B. Install the rechargeable battery pack into the handset

The handset is powered by a rechargeable battery pack. The battery recharges automatically when the handset is placed in the base unit.

Charge the handset battery pack for at least 15-20 hours before using your new cordless telephone for the first time! 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) Plug the battery pack connector (red & black wires) into the small, black jack inside the battery compartment. (The connector notches fit into the grooves of the jack only 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 certain you have made a good connection by slightly pulling on the battery wires to insure that there is a secure connection. If the battery connector is not securely connected, the handset will not charge properly.

• Use only the Uniden

(BT-905) rechargeable battery pack supplied with your cordless telephone.

• Replacement batteries are also available through the Uniden Parts Department at (800) 554-3988, Monday thru Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. or online at

www.uniden.com

GETTING STARTED[ 10 ] www.uniden.com

4) Place the battery case cover back on the handset by sliding 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/in use/voicemail) illuminates once the handset is placed in the base. The LED light will illuminate regardless if the battery pack is connected or not.

DO NOT rely on the LED light as an indicator that the battery pack is connected and the handset is charging!

If the base charge/in use/voicemail LED light does not illuminate:

• Check to see if the AC adapter is plugged into the base

unit and the electrical wall outlet properly. (Use only the supplied AC adapter. Do not use any other AC adapter.)

• Check to see if the handset is sitting correctly in the

base and making good contact with the base unit’s charging contacts.

GETTING STARTED

GETTING STARTED [ 11]www.uniden.com

• 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 a telephone call.

• Talk Mode The handset is off the base and talk/flash has been pressed enabling a dial tone.

• Standby Mode The handset is not in use, off the base and talk/flash has not been pressed. A dial tone is not present.

Cleaning the charging contacts

To maintain a good charge, it is important to clean the charging contacts on both the handset and base unit once a month. Use a dry cloth or pencil eraser to clean. If the contacts become very dirty, 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.

The last number dialed in the redial memory, as well as, the names and the numbers stored in the memory locations are retained for up to 30 minutes while you replace the battery pack.

Low battery alert

When the battery pack is very low and needs to be charged, the phone is programmed to eliminate functions in order to save power. If the phone is not in use, ¨

Low Battery¨

appears on the LCD and none of the keys will operate. If the phone is in use, ¨

Low Battery¨ flashes and the

handset beeps. Complete your conversation as quickly as possible and return the handset to the base unit for charging.

Battery use time (per charge)

From fully charged (15-20 hours charge time)

• Up to seven hours continuous use during talk mode

• Up to fourteen days when the handset is in the standby mode

EXT3165-01/22 1/22/03 7:37 PM Page 11

GETTING STARTED[ 12 ] www.uniden.com

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.

Use only the supplied AD-446 AC adapter. Do not use any other AC adapter.

• Connect the AC adapter to a continuous power supply.

• Place the base unit close to the AC outlet so that you can unplug the AC adapter easily.

C. Connect the base unit

1) Connect the AC adapter to the DC IN 9V jack

and to a standard 120V AC wall outlet.

2) Set the base on a desk or tabletop, and place the handset on the base unit.

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

Route the cord.

• After installing the battery pack in the handset, charge your handset at least 15-20

hours before plugging into the phone line.

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

Modular

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

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.

Redial

The redial/p key redials the last number dialed. The redialed number can be up to 32 digits long.

Tone Dialing Switch-over

Some telephone companies use equipment that requires pulse dialing (sometimes referred to as rotary dialing). If you need to enter tone dialing digits, you can switchover to tone dialing during the call. For example, entering your bank account number after you have called your bank.

Initially make your call with the pulse dialing mode. Once your call connects, press the

/tone/ key. Enter the desired number. These digits will be sent as tone

dialing. Once the call ends, the tone mode is canceled and pulse dialing mode resumes.

Traveling Out-of-Range

During a call, as you begin to move your handset too far from your base unit, noise increases. If you pass the range limits of the base unit, your call will terminate within 1 minute.

• The tone feature only applies when the dial mode is set to pulse.

• This special number can be stored in a memory location. This is referred to as Chain Dialing (See page

27.)

Telephone Line Problems

The FCC has granted the telephone company the right to disconnect service in the event that your phone causes problems on the telephone line. Also, the telephone company may make changes in facilities and services which may affect the operation of your unit. However, your telephone company must give adequate notice in writing prior to such actions to allow you time for making necessary arrangements to continue uninterrupted service. If you are having trouble with your telephone service, you must first disconnect your phone to determine if it is the cause of your problem. If you determine that it is the cause, you must leave it disconnected until the trouble has been corrected.

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 antenna on the unit is fully extended. 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.

More Than One Cordless Telephone

If you want to use more than one cordless telephone in your home, they must operate on different channels. Press the channel key to select a channel that provides the clearest communication.

Cordless Telephone Privacy

Cordless telephones are radio devices. Communications between the handset and base of your cordless telephone are accomplished by means of radio waves which are broadcast over the open airways. Because of the inherent physical properties of radio waves, your communications can be received by radio receiving devices other than your own cordless telephone unit. Consequently, any communications using your cordless telephone may not be private.

Installation Considerations

Selecting a Location

Before choosing a location for your new phone, there are some

important guidelines you should consider:

• The location should be close to both a phone jack and continuous power outlet. (A continuous power outlet is an AC outlet which does not have a switch to interrupt its power.)

• Keep the base and handset away from sources of electrical noise such as motors or fluorescent lighting.

• Be sure there is sufficient space to fully extend the base antenna.

• The base can be placed on a desk or tabletop or mounted on a

standard telephone wall plate.

• You should charge your new phone for 15-20 hours before completing the installation or using the handset.

Telephone Line Outlets

There are two types of phone outlets:

Modular Jack

Most phone equipment available now uses modular jacks. Phone cords are fitted with a molded plastic connector which plugs into this type of jack. If you do not have modular phone jacks, contact your local telephone company for information about their installation.

Hardwired Jack

Some equipment is wired directly to a phone jack, and these types of installations require a modular jack converter. This type of installation is not difficult; however, you should contact your Uniden telephone dealer or a telephone supply store for advice about the proper adapter or converter for your particular situation.

Connecting the Telephone Cords

Consider these safety guidelines before connecting the telephone cords:

Caution!

• Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.

• Never touch uninsulated telephone wires or terminals unless the telephone line has been disconnected.

• Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.

Applying Power to the Base

This phone requires an AC outlet, without a switch to interrupt power, and the included AC adapter. To relieve strain on the DC plug when the phone is placed on a desk or table, wrap the power cord around the strain relief notch on the back of the base.

NOTE: Place the power cord so that it does not create a trip

hazard, or where it could become chafed and create a fire or other electrical hazards.
