Important Electrical Considerations Unplug all electrical appliances when you know an electrical storm is approaching. Lightning can pass through your household wiring and damage any device connected to it. This phone is no exception. Warning! Please do not attempt to unplug any appliance during an electrical storm.
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 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.
Installation Selecting a Location Before choosing a location for your new phone, there are some important guidelines you should consider: ò 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.) ò Keep the Base Unit and Handset away from sources of electrical noise such as motors or fluorescent lighting. ò Be sure there is sufficient space to fully extend the Base Unit antenna.
Applying Power to the Base Unit 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, connect the adapter as shown below. Wrap the power cord around the strain relief notch on the bottom of the Base Unit. [ 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.
Desk or Tabletop Installation 1. Place the Base on a desk or tabletop. [ In desk or table top installation, the Handset is designed to stand only vertically in the Base Unit. DO NOT lay the Handset down on the Base Unit. 2. Plug the AC Adapter cord into the 9 VDC input jack on the Base Unit. 3. Place the AC Adapter cord around the strain relief notch.
4. Plug one end of the long telephone cord into the TEL LINE jack on the Base Unit. 5. Plug the other end of the cord into the telephone jack on the wall. 6. Plug the AC Adapter into a standard 120 VAC wall outlet. [ Do not use an outlet controlled by a wall switch. Use only the Uniden AC Adapter supplied with this phone.
Wall Installation Standard Wall Plate Mounting These phones are designed to be mounted on a standard AT&T or GTE wall plate. 1. Plug the AC Adapter into the Base Unit. 2. Place the AC Adapter cord around the strain relief notch. Then, put the AC Adapter cord inside the molded channel.
3. Plug one end of the short telephone cord into the TEL LINE jack on the Base Unit. Place the telephone cord inside the molded channel on the bottom of the Base Unit. Then plug the other end of the telephone cord into the modular jack on the wall. 4. Place the Base Unit on the posts of the wall plate and push down until it’s firmly seated. 5. Plug the AC Adapter into a standard 120 VAC wall outlet. [ Do not use an outlet controlled by a wall switch.
Direct Wall Mounting If you do not have a standard wall plate, you can mount your phone directly on a wall. Before mounting your phone, consider the following: ò 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. ò Make sure the wall material is capable of supporting the weight of the Base Unit and Handset.
