Installing 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 and fluorescent lighting.
The base can be placed on a desk, tabletop, or mounted on a standard wall plate. For better reception, place the base as high as possible.
The base should be placed in an open area for optimum range and reception.
Avoid noise sources such as a window by a street with heavy traffic
Avoid heat sources, such as radiators,
air ducts, and sunlight
Choose a central location
Avoid other cordless telephones
Avoid personal computers
Avoid excessive moisture, extremely low temperatures, dust, mechanical vibration, or shock
Avoid microwave ovens Avoid television sets and other electronic equipment
! 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
B. Install the Rechargeable Battery Packs into the Handsets
Both handsets are powered by rechargeable battery packs. The battery recharges automatically when the handset is placed in the main base or charging cradle.
1) Press down on the handset battery case cover (use the finger indention for a better grip) and slide the cover down ward to remove.
2) Plug the battery pack connector (red & black wires) into the jack inside the battery compartment. (The connector notches fit into the grooves of the 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.
Repeat process for second handset (XSA1255+1 only).
Use only the Uniden
(BT-905 or BT-905s)
rechargeable battery pack
supplied with your
cordless telephone.
[7]
C. Connect the Main Base and Charging Cradle(XSA1255+1 only), and
Charge the Handsets
1) Connect each AC adapter to the DCIN 9V jack and to each standard 240V AC wall outlet.
2) Place one handset in the main base and the other in the charging cradle with the keypad facing forward.
3) Make sure the charge/in use LED and charge LED illuminate. If the LED does not illuminate, check to see that the AC adapter is plugged in and the handset makes good contact with the cradle's charging contacts.
• Connect each AC adapter to a continuous power supply.
• Place each cradle close to the AC outlet to avoid long extension cords.
4) Charge your handsets at least 15-20 hours before plugging the phone line.
5) 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.
! Use only the
supplied AAD­041S adapter. 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 fire or electrical hazard.

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 main base and handset.
Use #10 screws (minimum length of 35mm) with anchoring devices suitable for the wall material where the main base 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.
