Important Electrical Considerations

Unplug all electrical appliances when you know an electrical storm is approaching. Lightning can pass through your household wiring and damage any device connected to it. The

is no exception.

Range

The
XCA4510/15
transmitting and receiving according to the highest specifications set forth by the FCC. We have rated this phone to operate at a maximum distance with the qualification that the range depends upon the environment in which the telephone is used. Many factors limit range, and it would be impossible to include all the variables in our rating. The Maximum Range rating of your integrated telephone answering device is meant to be used as a means of comparison against other range claims.
is designed to achieve the maximum possible range by

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.
7

Radio Interference

Radio interference may occasionally cause buzzing and humming in your cordless Handset or clicking noises in the Base Unit. This interference is caused by external sources such as TV, refrigerator, vacuum cleaner, fluorescent lighting, or electrical storms. 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; and, 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.

Selecting a Location

Installation

Before choosing a location for your 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 Unit 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 Unit antenna.
The Base Unit can be placed on a desk or tabletop or mounted on a standard AT&T or GTE wall plate.
If you decide to mount your integrated telephone answering device on the wall, make sure to change the handset retainer so that the tab which holds the Handset faces up. (See page 20 for more information.)
You should charge your new phone for 15-20 hours before completing the installation or using the Handset.
XCA4510/15
, there are some important

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.
Hard-wired 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.
