Important Electrical Considerations
Unplug all electrical appliances when you know an electrical storm is approaching.
Lightning can pass through your household wiring and damage any device connected to
it. This phone is no exception.
Warning:
Please do not attempt to unplug any appliance during an electrical storm.
Caution:
Changes or modifications to this product not expressly approved by Uniden,
or operation of this product in any way other than as detailed by this
Operating Guide, could void your authority to operate this product.
Range
Your new phone is designed to achieve the maximum possible range by transmitting
and receiving according to the highest specifications set forth by the FCC. We have rated
this phone to operate at a maximum distance with the qualification that the range
depends upon the environment in which the telephone is used. Many factors limit
range, and it would be impossible to include all the variables in our rating. The
Maximum Range rating of this phone is meant to be used as a means of comparison
against other range claims.
Telephone Line Problems
The FCC has granted the telephone company the right to disconnect service in the event
that your phone causes problems on the telephone line. Also, the telephone company may
make changes in facilities and services that may affect the operation of your unit. However,
your telephone company must give adequate notice in writing prior to such actions to allow
you time for making necessary arrangements to continue uninterrupted service.
If you are having trouble with your telephone service, you must first disconnect your
phone to determine if it is the cause of your problem. If you determine that it is the
cause, you must leave it disconnected until the trouble has been corrected.
Radio Interference
Radio interference may occasionally cause buzzing and humming in your cordless
Handset, or clicking noises in the Base Unit. This interference is caused by external
sources such as TV, refrigerator, vacuum cleaner, fluorescent lighting, or electrical
storm. Your unit is NOT DEFECTIVE. If these noises continue and are too distracting,
please check around your home to see what appliances may be causing the problem. In
addition, we recommend that the Base not be plugged into a circuit that also powers a
major appliance because of the potential for interference. Be certain that the antenna
on the unit is fully extended when needed.
In the unlikely event that you consistently hear other voices or distracting transmissions
on your phone, you may be receiving radio signals from another cordless telephone or
other source of interference. If you cannot eliminate this type of interference, you need
to change to a different channel.
Finally, it should be noted that some cordless telephones operate at frequencies that
may cause interference to nearby TVs and VCRs. To minimize or prevent such
interference, the base of the cordless telephone should not be placed near or on top of
a TV or VCR. If interference is experienced, moving the cordless telephone farther away
from the TV or VCR will often reduce or eliminate the interference.
More Than One Cordless Telephone
If you want to use more than one cordless telephone in your home, they must operate
on different channels. Press the channel key to select a channel that provides the
clearest communication.
