Installing the Phone

Do the following steps:

A. Choose the best location

B. Install the rechargeable battery pack into the handset

C. Connect the base unit and charging cradle (XS1215+1 only), and charge the handset

D. Mount the base unit on a wall

E. Choose the dialing mode

A. Choose the best location

When choosing a location for your new phone, here are some important guidelines you should consider:

Avoid heat sources, such as radiators, air ducts, and sunlight

Avoid noise sources such as a window by a street with heavy traffic

Avoid microwave ovens

Avoid television sets and other electronic equipment

Avoid excessive moisture, extremely low temperatures, dust, mechanical vibration, or shock

Choose a central location

Avoid personal computers

Avoid other cordless telephones

The location should be close to both a phone jack and a continuous power outlet (one which is not connected to a switch).

The base and handset should be kept away from sources of electrical noise such as motors and fluorescent lighting.

The base can be placed on a desk, tabletop, or mounted on a standard wall plate. For better reception, place the base as high as possible.

The base should be placed in an open area for optimum range and reception.

[6]

!

If your home has specially wired alarm equipment connected to the telephone line, be sure that installing the system does not disable your alarm equipment.

!

If you have questions about what will disable your alarm equipment, contact your telephone company or a qualified installer.

Use only the Uniden

(BT-905) rechargeable battery pack supplied with your cordless telephone.

B. Install the Rechargeable Battery Pack into the Handset

The handset(s) are powered by rechargeable battery packs. The battery recharges automatically when the handset is placed in the charging cradle.
