Installing the Rechargeable Battery Packs into the Handsets

Each handset is powered by a rechargeable battery pack. Once installed, the battery
charges automatically when the handset is placed in the base or charging cradle
(XS1415+1 only).

To install the rechargeable battery pack:

1) Press down on the handset battery case cover (use the nger indention for a better

grip) and slide the cover downward to remove.

2) Plug the battery pack connector (red & black wires) into the small jack inside the

battery compartment. (The connector notches t 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 sure you have a good connection by slightly pulling on the battery wires. If
the connection is secure, the battery jack will remain in place.

4) Place the battery case cover back in the handset by sliding it upwards until it clicks
into place.

Note: Use only the Uniden (BT-905s) rechargeable battery pack supplied
with your phone.

Installing the Base Unit and Charging Cradle (XS1415+1 only)

1) Connect each AC adapter to the DC IN 9V jack and to each
standard 240V AC wall outlet.

Note:

• Use only the supplied PS-S0921YL3 AC adapter
for the base unit and AAD-600S(M) for the
charging cradle (XS1415+1 only). Do not use any
other AC adapter.

• Do not place the power cord where it creates a
trip hazard or where it could become chafed and

create a re or electrical hazard.

2)

Charge the handsets by placing one handset in the base unit
and the other in the charging cradle (XS1415+1 only) with
the keypad facing forward.

3) Make sure that the in use/ LED and LED (XS1415+1 only) illuminate. 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 cradle’s charging contacts.

Note:

• Connect the AC adapter to a continuous power supply

• Place each cradle close to the AC outlet to avoid long extension
cords.

• Charge your handsets at least 15 - 20 hours before

plugging into the phone line.

4) Once the handset battery packs are fully charged, connect
the telephone cord to the TEL LINE jack and a telephone
outlet. 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 1.5m of a working phone jack to avoid excessive cord lengths.
Make sure the wall material is capable of supporting the weight of the base and handset.
Use #10 screws (minimum length of 35mm) 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), 100mm
apart. Allow about 3mm between the wall and screw heads for mounting the phone.

2) Refer to steps 1 through 6 on page 1

1 to mount the telephone.

also be registered to the base unit before use.

To register the extra handset:

1) Be sure both handsets are fully charged.

2) Pick up the handset from the charging cradle, and place it in the base unit. The in use/

LED light on the base

unit will begin to ash, indicating that the registration is taking place.

3) Wait for at least 5 seconds, then pick up the handset from the base unit.

4) Press

[talk/ash] on one handset. If TALK appears on the display, the handset is registered, press [end].
Then try with another handset. If each handset displays TALK, the handset has been registered to the base.
Otherwise, return to step 1 and try again.

5) Once both handsets are registered, it doesn’t matter which handset is placed in the base unit or the charging
cradle.

Note:

• When you charge the handsets, Caller ID summary screen and the name
of the handset appears. Following display is the example of handset No.1
(Handset No.1).

• The charging cradle can be used to charge any handset.

the unit is unplugged during a move), both handsets will need to be re-registered. To re-register, follow the same
registration process on page 13.

3) If any handset’s battery becomes very low, the handset must be recharged for 15 - 20 hours and re-registered to
the main base unit.

4) In any circumstance in which you experience difculty connecting to the main base to place or receive calls, the

handset should be re-registered.

Changing the Digital Security Code

To protect you against misbilled calls which might result from your phone being activated by other equipment, the
cordless phone provides Random Code digital security which automatically selects one of over 262,000 digital
security codes for each handset and the base. If the handset battery pack is completely discharged or the battery
pack is removed, the digital security code will be lost. If this happens, a new security code is set automatically the
next time the battery pack is charged. In the rare situation that you suspect another cordless telephone is using the
same security code, you can change the code.

For XS1415;

1) Pick up the handset from the cradle. Press and hold

[nd] on the base.

2) While holding

[nd], place the handset in the base, and leave the handset in

the base for more than 3 seconds. A new random security code is set.

For XS1415+1;

1) Pick up the handset from the cradle. Press and hold

[nd] on the base.

2) While holding

[nd], place the handset in the base, and leave the handset in

the base for more than 3 seconds.

3) Pick up the handset from the base. Then place the second handset in the base and wait for more than 3
seconds. No need to hold [nd] this time.

4) Press

[talk/ash] on one handset. Once you make sure TALK appears on the display, press
[end]. Then, try with the other handset. If each handset displays TALK, a new security
codes is set. Otherwise, return to step 1 and try again.

Talk and Standby Times

With average use, your handset battery provides approximately 6 hours of talk time and approximately 12 days
(XS1415) or 6 days (XS1415+1) of standby time. When your handset is not being used and is left off of the charging
cradle the battery will gradually discharge. You can achieve optimum battery life and performance by returning the
handset to the charging cradle after each use. If the handset is left off of the charging cradle, the actual talk time
duration will be reduced respective to the amount of time the handset is off of the charging cradle.

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. During a call, LOW BATTERY ashes and the

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

Note: Information stored in the phone's memory will be retained for 30 minutes after the battery pack
is removed. This includes all setup information, last number dialed, speed dial memory, and the CID
list.

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 cradle after a telephone call.
