Congratulations on your purchase of the Uniden Multi Handset Cordless System telephone. This
unit is different from conventional cordless telephones. When the base unit is connected to AC
power and a telephone line, it can support up to 4 handsets. Using extra handsets, you can
establish a 3-way conference call (2 handsets and an outside line), while two other handsets are
making an intercom call. You can now place a fully featured cordless handset anywhere in your
home or office where AC power is available to connect the handset chargers.
Note: Some illustrations in this manual may differ from the actual unit for
explanation purposes.

WELCOME/FEATURES
This series features include AutoTalk and AutoStandby. AutoTalk allows you to answer a call by just removing
the handset from the cradle so you don't have to waste time pushing buttons. AutoStandby allows you to hang up by
simply returning the handset to the cradle.
To pr ot ec t you aga in st mis-bi ll ed call s, whi ch might re su lt from you r ph one being act ivate d by oth er equi pm en t, this
series has Random Code digital security, which automatically selects one of over approx. 130,000 digital security
codes for the handset and base.
Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum (FHSS) technology improves calling range and clarity, and eliminates cross talk.
Because it rapidly changes transmission frequencies within the 2.4GHz bandwidth, this cordless phone helps reduce
the possibility of eavesdropping.
DirectLink mode is used when you have 2 or more handsets. You can use your handsets as transceivers.

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 17-20 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 groove s of th e jack only one-way.) Match the wire c olors
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 on the handset by sliding it
upwards until it clicks into place.
5) Place the handset in the base unit for 17-20 hours without
interruption. The base unit's LED light (labeled charge) illuminates
once the handset is placed in the base. The LED light will illuminate
whether the battery pack is connected or not.
If the base charge/in use 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.

If the phone is in the standby mode, none of keys will

quickly as possible, and return the handset to the cradle.
Cleaning the battery charging contacts
To maintain a good charge, it is important to clean the
charging contacts on both the handset and the base unit
once a month. 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.
Caution: Do not use paint thinner, benzene, alcohol, or other
chemical products. Doing so may discolor the surface of the
telephone and damage the finish.

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 8 on page 14 to mount
the telephone.

PRECAUTIONS &
WARRANTY
Telephone Line Problems
The FCC has granted the telephone company t he right to disconnect
service in the event that your phone causes prob lems on the telephone
line. Also, the telephone company may mak e 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 chec k 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 p otential for interference. Be
certain that the antenna on the unit is fully extended when needed.
In the unlikely event that you consistently hear othe r voices or
distracting transmissions on your phone, yo u may be receiving radio
signals from another cordless telephone or o ther 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 c ordless 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 co rdless telephone in your home, they
must operate on different channels. Press the channel key to select a
channel that provides the clearest communicatio n.
Cordless Telephone Privacy
Cordless telephones are radio devices. Communic ations 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 o f radio waves, your
communications can be received by radio receiv ing 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 a way from sources of electrical noise such
as motors or fluorescent lighting.
Be sure there is sufficient sp ace 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 p hone for 17-20 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 ins tallation.
Hardwired Jack
Some equipment is wired directly to a pho ne jack, and these types of
installations require a modular jack converter. This type of installation is
not difficul t; however, you sh ould contact you r Uniden telephon e 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 bottom 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.
