B. Install the rechargeable battery pack into the handset
Charge the handset battery pack for at least 15-20 hours before using your new cordless
telephone for the first time! The handset is powered by a rechargeable battery pack. The
battery recharges automatically when the handset is placed in the base unit. 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 jack
inside the battery compartment (the connector notches fit into
the grooves of the jack only one-way). Match the wire colors 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 15-20 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 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.
•Use only the Uniden
(BT-446) rechargeable
battery pack supplied
with your cordless
telephone.
•Replacement battery
packs are also
