Important Safety Precautions!
When using your telephone equipment, basic safety
precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk
of fire, electric shock and injury to persons, including the
following:
Do not use this product near water, for example, near a
bath tub, wash bowl, kitchen sink or laundry tub, in a wet
basement or near a swimming pool.
Avoid using a telephone (other than a cordless type) during
an electrical storm. There may be a remote risk of electric
shock from lightning.
Do not use the telephone to report a gas leak in the vicinity
of the leak.
Use only the power cord and batteries indicated in this
manual. Do not dispose of batteries in a fire. They may
explode. Check with local codes for possible special
disposal instructions.
Do not place the handset in any charging cradle without the
battery installed and the battery cover securely in place.

place. Tug gently on the wires
to make sure the battery pack
is securely connected. Place the cover over the battery
compartment and slide it up into
place.
Connect the Charger
Connect the AC adapter to
the charger's

Charge the handset completely (about
15 hours) before using it.
Registering the Handset
The accessory handset will not work
until you register it to a base!
Registering the handset is a separate process from
registering the Ultra-Range charger. You can use the
handset normally even if the charger is not registered.
Compatible Bases
This handset is designed for use with Uniden's DECT4066,
DECT4086, and DECT4096 bases. Other Uniden DECT6.0
bases might be compatible with this handset. For the most
up-to-date list of compatible bases for this handset, see our
website.
Register the handset
In most cases, all you need to do is place the handset in the
base. The display should say Handset Registering .
If the handset doesn't fit in the base cradle or if the base has
a corded handset, follow the steps below:

On the base, open the menu and select

The display should say Press & Hold Handset "#" or
Repeater "reg" .
On the handset, press and hold
POUND (#)
until the
handset display says Handset Registering (about 5
seconds).
After about 30 seconds, the handset display
should say Registration Complete .
Test the connection
Pick up the handset and press
TALK
. Make sure you get a
dial tone. (Press
END
to hang up.)
If... Try...

the display says
Registration Failed

Making sure the handset is
fully charged, then trying
again.
Using the Handset
When the handset registers to a base, it adapts its
software to match that specific base. This means that
the exact features and operation of the handset will vary
slightly depending on which base you register the handset
to. Refer to the user guide for the base you're registering
the handset to for feature descriptions.
All features and operation for the handset are described
in the user's guide for one of the bases listed under the
Compatible Bases section.
User guides for all Uniden phones are available on our
website for free downloading.

Each of these bases can support up to two DRX402 Ultra-
Range chargers, including any that were supplied with
your phone.
Usually, you can't tell when a handset switches between
the base and the charger in the middle of a call, but
sometimes, you might notice a brief pause in your
conversation.
Registering the Ultra-Range charger
Registering the Ultra-Range charger is a separate
process from registering the handset. You can use
the charger even if the handset is not registered.
On the base, open the menu and select Register Handset .
On the bottom of the Ultra-
Range charger, press and
hold the registration button
until the
LINK
light starts to
blink (about 2 seconds).
Release the button and wait
for the
LINK
light to turn on
and steady (this can take
about 90 seconds).
If the
LINK
light doesn't turn on,
disconnect the charger's AC adapter.
Wait about ten seconds, then try these
steps again.
Some important things to remember:
Only register one charger at a time. If more than one
charger is in registration mode at the same time, they can
interfere with each other.
If you want to use the Ultra-Range charger with a different
base, just register the charger to the new base. The

Continue walking away from the base. Make a note
where the signal strength icon drops from 3 bars to 2 or
if you start to hear noise on the line (which indicates the
signal is getting weaker).
Place the charger anywhere inside the range where the
signal strength icon showed 3 bars and the handset had
a clear signal with no noise.
Testing the location
Connect the charger's AC adapter and make sure the
LINK
light comes on steadily. If the light flashes, the Ultra-Range
charger is not getting a good signal from the base. The
charger may be too far away from the base, there may be
interference from electronic devices, or the signal might
be blocked by thick walls or metal objects. Try moving the
charger to another location.
Wall Mounting the Ultra-Range charger
If you want mount the charger on the wall, you need to adjust
the desk stand:
Pull the locking tab
up and back (see
the black arrow in
the illustration to the
right), and slide the
desk stand straight
off.
Flip the stand over
so the locking tabs
that say
WALL
are
facing the charger
with the arrows pointing down.

10
Align the stand with the
notches on the
charger.
Slide the stand
onto the notches
until it clicks into
place.
Insert two #10
screws into the
wall, 30 mm
apart. (For best
results, use a
level to ensure
the screws are
even.)
Remember to
use appropriate
anchors for the
wall material.
Keeping the AC
adapter cord out of the way, place the charger over the
screw heads and slide it down into place.
Switching back to the desk stand
If you want to switch back to using the charger on a desktop:
Remove the stand.
Rotate the stand so that the locking tabs that say
DESK
are facing the charger with the arrows pointing up.
Align the stand with the notches on the base.
Slide the stand onto the notches until it clicks into place.
