the handset beeps. Complete your conversation as quickly as
possible and return the handset to the base unit for charging.
Cleaning the battery contacts
To maintain a good charge, it is important to clean the battery
contacts on the handset and base unit about once a month. Use a
pencil eraser or other contact cleaner.
Do not use liquids or solvents.
Even when the battery
pack is not being used, it
will gradually
discharge over a long
period. For optimum
performance, be sure to
return the handset to the
base unit after a
telephone call for
charging the battery.
Rechargeable batteries
have a memory effect that
reduces standby and talk
time. To avoid this
memory effect, on a
monthly basis, use the
phone until
Low Battery
appears. Then charge the
battery for more than 17
hours.
Charging optional battery packs
The base of your phone is equipped with a compartment for charging
an extra battery pack for use in your handset.
You can obtain an extra battery pack from your authorized
Uniden dealer.
1. Position the battery pack so
the charging contacts are
facing up.
2. Slide the battery pack into
the charging compartment
until it locks into place.
3. Charge the battery for more than 24 hours.
To install the charged battery into the handset, see Preparing the
