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 electrica

Caution:

Changes or modifications to this product not expressly approved

by Uniden, or operation of this product in any way other than as

detailed by this Operating Guide, could void your authority to
operate this product.

Range

Your new phone is designed to achieve the maximum possible range by
transmitting and receiving according to the highest specifications. We have

rated this phone to operate at a maximum distance with the qualification that

the range depends upon the environment in which the telephone is used.

Many factors limit range, and it would be impossible to include all the variables
in our rating. The Maximum Range rating of this phone is meant to be used as

a means of comparison against other range claims.

Telephone Line Problems

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 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. 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 when needed.

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.

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.

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 channel key to select a

channel that provides the clearest communication.
