Installation
Selecting a Location
Before choosing a location for your new phone, there are some
important guidelines you should consider:
ò
The location should be close to both a phone jack and continuous
power outlet. (
A continuous power outlet is an AC outlet which does
not have a switch to interrupt its power.
)
ò
Keep the Base Unit and Handset away from sources of electrical noise
such as motors or fluorescent lighting.
ò
Be sure there is sufficient space to fully extend the Base Unit antenna.
ò
The Base Unit can be placed on a desk or tabletop or mounted on a
standard AT&T or GTE wall plate.
ò
You should charge your new phone for 15-20 hours before
completing the installation or using the Handset.
Telephone Line Outlets
There are two types of phone outlets:
Modular Jack
Most phone equipment available now uses modular jacks. Phone cords
are fitted with a molded plastic connector which plugs into this type of
jack. If you do not have modular phone jacks, contact your local
telephone company for information about their installation.
Hard-wired Jack
Some equipment is wired directly to a phone jack, and these types of
installations require a modular jack converter. This type of installation is
not difficult; however, you should contact your Uniden telephone dealer
or a telephone supply store for advice about the proper adapter or
converter for your particular situation.
Connecting the Telephone Cords
Consider these safety guidelines before connecting the telephone cords:
Caution!
ò
Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.
ò
Never touch uninsulated telephone wires or terminals unless the
telephone line has been disconnected.
ò
Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.
