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 cord lengths.  
• Make sure the wall material is capable of supporting the weight of  
the main base and handset.

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), 3-  
15/16 inches apart. Allow about 1/8 of an inch between the wall and screw heads for  
mounting the phone.

other equipment, the cordless phone provides AutoSecure (which electrically locks your phone  
TM  
when each handset is in the cradle) and Random Code digital security which automatically  
selects one of over 262,000 digital security codes for each handset and the main 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.  
1) Remove the handset from the cradle. Press and hold the find handset key on the main  
base.  
2) While holding the find handset key, place the handset in the main base, and leave the  
handset in the main base for more than three seconds.  
3) Remove the handset from the main base. Then place the second handset in the main base  
and wait for more than three seconds. No need to holding the find handset key this time.  
4) Press the talk/flash key on one handset. Once you make sure Talk appears on the display,  
press the end key. Then, try with the second handset. If each handset displays Talk, a  
new security code is set. Otherwise, return to step 1 and try again.

Telephone Line Problems  
Installation Considerations  
One Year Limited Warranty  
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.  
Important: Evidence of original purchase is required for warranty service.  
WARRANTOR: UNIDEN AMERICA CORPORATION (“Uniden”)  
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 away from sources of electrical noise such  
as motors or fluorescent lighting.  
• The base can be placed on a desk or tabletop or mounted on a standard  
telephone wall plate.  
ELEMENTS OF WARRANTY: Uniden warrants, for one year, to the original  
retail owner, this Uniden Product to be free from defects in materials and  
craftsmanship with only the limitations or exclusions set out below.  
WARRANTY DURATION: This warranty to the original user shall terminate  
and be of no further effect 12 months after the date of original retail  
sale. The warranty is invalid if the Product is (A)  
damaged or not maintained as reasonable or necessary, (B) modified,  
altered, or used as part of any conversion kits, subassemblies, or any  
configurations not sold by Uniden, (C) improperly installed,  
(D) serviced or repaired by someone other than an authorized Uniden  
service center for a defect or malfunction covered by this warranty, (E)  
used in any conjunction with equipment or parts or as part of any system  
not manufactured by Uniden, or (F) installed or programmed by anyone  
other than as detailed by the owner’s manual for this product.  
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.  
• You should charge your new phone for 15-20 hours before completing  
the installation or using the handset.  
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 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 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, you need to change to  
a different channel.  
Telephone Line Outlets  
There are two types of phone outlets:  
Modular Jack  
STATEMENT OF REMEDY: In the event that the product does not conform  
to this warranty at any time while this warranty is in effect, warrantor  
will either, at its option, repair or replace the defective unit and return it  
to you without charge for parts, service, or any other cost (except  
shipping and handling) incurred by warrantor or its representatives in  
connection with the performance of this warranty. Warrantor, at its  
option, may replace the unit with a new or refurbished unit. THE LIMITED  
WARRANTY SET FORTH ABOVE IS THE SOLE AND ENTIRE WARRANTY  
PERTAINING TO THE PRODUCT AND IS IN LIEU OF AND EXCLUDES ALL  
OTHER WARRANTIES OF ANY NATURE WHATSOEVER, WHETHER EXPRESS,  
IMPLIED OR ARISING BY OPERATION OF LAW, INCLUDING, BUT NOT  
LIMITED TO ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS  
FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THIS WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER OR  
PROVIDE FOR THE REIMBURSEMENT OR PAYMENT OF INCIDENTAL OR  
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES. Some states do not allow this exclusion or  
limitation of incidental or consequential damages so the above limitation  
or exclusion may not apply to you.  
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.  
Hardwired 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.  
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.  
If interference is experienced, moving the cordless telephone farther  
away from the TV or VCR will often reduce or eliminate the interference.  
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.  
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 delete/channel key to  
select a channel that provides the clearest communication.  
LEGAL REMEDIES: This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you  
may also have other rights which vary from state to state. This warranty  
is void outside the United States of America and Canada.  
• Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.  
Applying Power to the Base  
Cordless Telephone Privacy  
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 back of the base.  
PROCEDURE FOR OBTAINING PERFORMANCE OF WARRANTY: If, after  
following the instructions in the owner’s manual you are certain that the  
Product is defective, pack the Product carefully (preferably in its original  
packaging). The Product should include all parts and accessories  
originally packaged with the Product. Include evidence of original  
purchase and a note describing the defect that has caused you to return  
it. The Product should be shipped freight prepaid, by traceable means, to  
warrantor at:  
Cordless telephones are radio devices. Communications 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 of radio waves, your communications can be  
received by radio receiving devices other than your own cordless  
telephone unit. Consequently, any communications using your cordless  
telephone may not be private.  
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.
