Welcome

Thank you for purchasing a Uniden Multi-Handset phone with integrated answer machine. This unit is different from conventional cordless telephones. When the base unit is connected to AC power and a telephone line, it can support up to 4 handsets. Using extra handsets, you can establish a 3-way conference call (2 handsets and an outside line), while two other handsets are making an intercom call. You can now place a fully featured cordless handset anywhere in your home or office where AC power is available to connect the handset chargers.

Note: Illustrations in this manual are used for explanation purposes. Some illustrations in this manual may differ from the actual unit.

Caution: The earcap of this telephone may attract and retain small metallic objects.
