C. Install the rechargeable battery pack into the handset

1) Press down on the handset battery case cover (use the finger 

indention for a better grip) and slide the cover downward to 
remove.

2) Plug the battery pack connector (red & black wires) into the 

jack inside the battery compartment. (The connector notches 
fit into the grooves of the jack only one way.) Match the wire 
colors to the polarity label in the battery compartment, 
connect the battery and listen for a click to insure connection.

3) Make sure you have a good connection by slightly pulling on 

the battery wires. If the connection is secure, the battery jack 
will remain in place.

4) Place the battery case cover back on the handset and slide it 

upwards until it clicks into place.

Use only the Uniden 
(BT-905) rechargeable 
battery pack supplied 
with your cordless 
telephone.
