Installing Your EXP900

Selecting the Installation Location

Select a location for the EXP900 to avoid excessive heat or humidity (as in a kitchen or bathroom). The Base Unit of your EXP900 can be placed on a desk or tabletop near a standard 120V AC outlet and telephone line jack, mounted on a standard AT&T or GTE wall plate, or mounted directly on the wall. Keep the Base Unit and Handset away from sources of electrical noise (motors, fluorescent lighting, etc.). Be sure there is sufficient space to safely extend the Base Unit antenna fully.

Connecting the Telephone Line

There are three types of phone outlets:

Modular.

4-prong jack.

Hard-wired type.

Modular Jack

Plug the telephone line cord from the Base Unit into a standard modular telephone jack.

Note: If you do not have a modular jack, contact your local telephone company for information on the installation of these jacks.

4-Prong Jack

An adapter (not included) is required. The adapter plugs into the 4-prong jack and the telephone line cord plugs into the adapter.

Hard-wired Jack

A modular jack converter (not included) is required. You may need to rewire when connecting the converter (making color-coded connections).

Note: Your Uniden Cordless Telephone Dealer or a telephone supply store can advise you on the proper adapter or converter.

CAUTION:

Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.

Never install telephone jacks in wet locations unless the jack is specifically designed for wet locations.

Never touch uninsulated telephone wires or terminals unless the telephone line has been disconnected at the network interface.

Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.
