NOTE: For optimum performance use only the Uniden Battery (BT-904) supplied with your phone. Replacement batteries are also available through the Uniden Parts Department at (800) 554-3988, Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. or online at www.uniden.com

Low Battery Alert

When the battery pack is very low and needs to be charged, the phone is programmed to eliminate functions in order to save power. If the phone is not in use, the talk/batt low LED flashes when the battery pack is low.

If the phone is in use, the talk/batt low LED flashes and the handset beeps. Complete your conversation as quickly as possible and return the handset to the base for charging.

NOTE: • Even when the battery pack is not being used, it will gradually discharge over a long period of time. For optimum performance, be sure to return the handset to the base unit after each telephone call.

•Dial mode setting, last number dialed and numbers stored in memory locations (including RocketDial), are retained for up to 1 minute while you replace the battery pack.

Cleaning the battery charging contacts

To maintain a good charge, it is important to clean the charging contacts on the handset once a month.

Using water only, dampen a cloth to clean the charging contacts. Then make sure to go back over the charging contacts with a dry cloth before returning the handset to the base to charge.

Caution: Do not use paint thinner, benzene, alcohol, or other chemical products. Doing so may discolor the surface of the telephone and damage the finish.

C. Connect the base unit

1)Connect the AC adapter to the DC IN 9V jack and a standard 120V AC wall outlet.

2) Set the base unit on a desk or tabletop, and place the handset in the base unit.

Route the cord.

3) Make sure the charge/in use LED illuminates. If the LED does not illuminate, check to see that the AC adapter is plugged in and the handset makes good contact with the base charging contacts.

NOTICE: Place the power cord so it does not create a trip hazard or where it could become chafed and create a fire or electrical hazard.

NOTE: • Use only the supplied AD-0001 AC adapter. Do not use any other AC adapter.

•Connect the AC adapter to a continuous power supply.

•Place the base unit close to the AC outlet so that you can unplug the AC adapter easily.

After installing the battery pack in the handset, charge your handset at least 15-20 hours before plugging into the phone line.
