This product should never be placed near or over a radiator or heat register. This product should not be placed in a built-in installation unless proper ventilation is provided.
7. This product should be operated only from the type of power source indicated on the marking label. If you are not sure of the type of power supply to your home, consult your dealer or local power company.
8. Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord. Do not locate this product where the cord will be damaged by persons walking on it.
9. Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords, as this can result in the risk of fire or electrical shock.
10. Never push objects of any kind into this product through cabinet slots, as they may touch dangerous voltage points or short out parts that could result in a risk of fire or electrical shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on the product.
11. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble this product. Take it to qualified service personnel when service or repair work is required.

operating instructions. Improper adjustment of other controls may result in damage and will often require extensive repair work by a
qualified technician.) E. If the product has been dropped or the cabinet has been damaged. F. If the product exhibits a distinct change in performance.
13. Do not use the telephone to report a gas leak in the vicinity of the leak.
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 a 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 the 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, change to a different channel (refer to page 17).
Finally, it should be noted that some cordless telephones operate at frequencies that may cause interference to nearby TVs and VCRs. To minimise 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
1. 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.
2. Each telephone device that you connect draws power from the phone line. We refer to the power drawn as the devices Ringer Equivalence Number (REN). The REN is shown at the bottom part of your telephone. If you are using more than one phone or other device on the line, add up all the RENs. If the total is more than 3, your phones may not ring.

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 power outlet.
• 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 wall.
• If you decide to mount your phone on the wall, make sure to change the handset retainer so that the tab which holds the Handset faces up. (See page 9 for more information.)
• You should charge your new phone for 15-20 hours before completing the installation or using the Handset.

Telephone Line Outlet — 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 you local telephone company for information about their installation.

Connecting the Telephone Cord

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.
Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.

Applying Power to the Base Unit

The XSA660 or XSA650 requires an AC outlet and the included AC Adaptor. To relieve strain on the DC plug when the phone is placed on a desk or table, connect the adaptor as shown below.
Wrap the power cord around the convenient notch on the bottom.
Important: 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.

Select a location away from electrical cables, pipes, or other items behind the mounting location that could cause a hazard when inserting screws into the wall.
Make sure the wall material is capable of supporting the weight of the base and handset; otherwise, damage to the unit could result.
Use #10 screws with anchoring devices suitable for the wall material where the base will be placed.
1. Insert the screws, with their appropriate anchoring devices, 100mm apart. Allow 5mm between the wall and screw heads for mounting the phone.
2. Fit the Wall Mounting Adaptor to the telephone Base.
3. Plug the AC adaptor into the base.
4. Place the AC adaptor cord inside the left molded channel cord holder.
5. Plug one end of the long telephone cord into the TEL LINE jack on the base.

Installing the Battery Pack

The rechargeable Nickel-Cadmium battery pack must be fully charged before using your phone for the first time. Before plugging the phone line into your new phone, you must charge the battery for approximately 15-20 hours without interruption.
1. Remove the Handset battery cover.
2. Plug the battery’s cable into the handset and place the battery pack inside the battery compartment.
3. Replace the battery cover.

Charging the Handset

1. Place the handset on the base to charge. (The handset will charge only in the face-down position.) OR place the handset on the charger keypad facing forward (XSA660 only).
2. Make sure the status LED lights on the base or change LED lights on the charger. If the LED doesn’t light, check to see that the AC Adaptor is plugged in and switched on. Also that the Handset is making good contact with the Base Unit and charger charging contacts.

Continuous Battery Charging

For the best battery performance, return the Handset to the Base Unit at the end of the day. This keeps the battery fully charged.
The battery connector will fit together only one way. Make sure the connector is properly aligned. Use only the Uniden battery pack (model BT-434)
Replace the handset on the base after use if convenient. However recharging the battery is only necessary when the low battery indicator is lit. On a monthly basis use the phone until the low battery indicator appears. Then charge the battery for 15-20 hours.
Page 19
13

Low Battery Indicator

When the battery pack in the handset is low and needs to be charged, the talk/batt LED flashes once every 3 seconds.
If this occurs while you are on the phone, you will hear an alert tone. Complete your call as quickly as possible, and return the handset to the base for charging.

Cleaning the Battery Contacts

To maintain a good charge, it is important to clean all battery contacts on the handset and base about once a month. Use a pencil eraser or other contact cleaner. Do not use any liquids or solvents, or abrasive materials.

Automatic Digital Code Security

To avoid unauthorised calls on your phone, a Digital Code feature is added to the XSA660 and XSA650 phones. This Digital Code is shared only between the Handset and the Base Unit. The code is set automatically when you first use the phone.
Place the Handset on the Base Unit. The status LED on the Base will blink quickly, indicating that the code has been set.
If the Base Unit loses power while the Handset is off the Base, the Digital Code may be erased. When this happens, the Handset will not function. To reestablish communication between the Handset and Base Unit:
1. Restore power to the Base Unit.
2. Place the Handset back on the Base Unit.
3. The status LED on the base will blink quickly, indicating that the Digital Code has been reset.
