Note on Power Sources

Power Failure

During the period that the power is off, you can make or receive calls with the base. You cannot use the base speaker phone or the cordless handset.

Low battery alert

When the battery pack is very low and needs to be charged, the handset is programmed to eliminate functions in order to save power. If the handset is not in use, Low Battey appears on the handset LCD and none of the handset keys will operate.

If the phone is in use, Low Battery flashes and the handset beeps. Complete your conversation as quickly as possible and return the handset to the cradle for charging.

Information stored in the phone's memory will be retained for 30 minutes after the battery pack is removed. This includes earpiece volume, ringer tone and volume and last number dialed.

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 cradle after a telephone call.

Battery replacement and handling

When the operating time becomes short even after a battery is recharged, please replace the battery. With normal usage, your battery should last about one year. A replacement battery may be purchased by calling Uniden's Parts Department (see back cover page).
