GETTING STArTED  
Installing Your Phone  
Charge the baꢀery  
1. Unpack all handsets, batteries, and  
battery covers. If you need to remove a  
battery cover, press in on the notch and  
slide the cover down.  
2. Line up the battery connector with the jack inside the handset and  
push the connector in until it clicks into place. Tug gently on the  
wires to make sure the battery pack is securely connected.  
3. Replace the cover and slide it up into place.  
4. Connect the base AC adapter to the ac in 7.8V jack on the base. Run  
the cord through the indent and out the back.  
5. If you have accessory handsets, connect each charger’s applicable AC  
adapter to the power jack.  
If you have a DRX312 handset with a MULTIRANGE charger or  
a DWX317 waterproof handset, be sure to use the correct AC  
4
 
 
adapter for the charger. See the separate DRX312 or DWX317 user  
guide that was packaged with your phone.  
6. Plug the other end of each adapter into a standard 120V AC power  
outlet.  
7. Place one handset in the base and the other(s) in the charger(s) with  
the display(s) facing forward. The display on the handset should light  
up; if it doesn’t, reseat the handset or try plugging the AC adapter  
into a different outlet.  
Charge all handsets completely (about 15 hours) before using  
them.  
Connect the telephone cord  
Connect the TEL LinE jack to a standard telephone wall jack.  
Test the connecꢁon  
1. Pick up the handset from the cradle and press TaLk/fLash. You  
should hear a dial tone, and the display should say Talk  
.
If you don't hear a dial tone, try checking the connection between  
the base and the phone jack.  
2. Make a quick test call. (Press End to hang up.)  
If the tone doesn’t stop when you dial, try changing to pulse dialing  
mode (see page 36).  
If there's a lot of noise or static on the call, see page 35 for tips on  
avoiding interference.  
3. Test any accessory handsets the same way. If you can’t get a dial  
tone or the handset display says Unavailable, try resetting the  
handset (see page 37).  
Seꢃng Up the CellLink™ Bluetooth™ Connecꢀon  
The new DECT3181 with CellLink technology can connect with mobile  
phones that support the Bluetooth V2.0 handsfree profile.  
Visit Uniden.com or contact customer service for a detailed list of tested  
mobile phones.  
5
 
 
If you are not certain of the profiles supported by your Bluetooth  
phone or if you have difficulty pairing your phone to the DECT3181,  
see the manual that came with your phone.  
With the CellLink feature, you can essentially treat your cellular  
phone as a second line. You can use the DECT3181 handset to make  
and receive calls on your cellular phone number, put cellular calls  
on hold, and transfer calls to other handsets. See page 18 for more  
information.  
Bluetooth wireless devices have a maximum range of about 10  
feet (3 m); the actual range will vary depending on local conditions  
(obstacles, battery power, interference, etc.).  
Pair your Bluetooth phone  
Pairing “introduces” two Bluetooth devices and gives them permission  
to connect to each other. In most cases, once you pair a phone to the  
DECT3181, the two devices connect automatically whenever they detect  
each other. (If you have to manually reconnect each time, check the  
Bluetooth settings on your cellular phone.) You can pair your Bluetooth  
devices through the DECT3181 handset.  
1. Press MEnu/sELEcT to display the handset’s main menu.  
2. Select the Bluetooth menu, then select the Add Cellular submenu.  
The LED on the base begins to flash and the base goes into pairing  
mode when the handset displays Use Cellular to Pair (PIN 0000).  
3. On your Bluetooth phone, start a search for other Bluetooth devices.  
(This process may take several seconds and it will be different for  
each mobile phone. See your phone owner’s manual for detailed  
instructions.)  
4. Your phone should discover a device called DECT3181 or Handsfree  
device. When your phone asks if you want to pair with this device,  
answer yes.  
5. If your phone prompts you for a PIN code or password to pair with  
the DECT3181, enter 0000 (four zeroes).  
6. When your phone accepts the Bluetooth connection, the DECT3181  
sounds a confirmation tone. The Bluetooth LED on the base and the  
Bluetooth status icon on the handset display, remain lit.  
6
 
most cellular phones automatically transfer the audio to a  
Bluetooth device as soon as it pairs; if yours does not, look in  
your cellular phone’s Bluetooth setup for a “transfer audio”  
or “send audio to device” option.  
To test the connecꢁon  
1. Pick up the handset from the cradle.  
2. Dial the number you want to call, then press cELLLink on the  
handset. You may not hear a dial tone or ringing, but the handset  
display says Talk  
.
3. Make sure the call connects and you can hear clearly. (When you’re  
finished, press End to hang up.)  
The DECT3181 remembers the pairing information for your cellular;  
if it loses connection with your phone for any reason (e.g., the  
cellular phone travels out of range, runs out of charge, etc.), the  
DECT3181 can automatically reconnect the next time your phone  
becomes available.  
Using the DECT3181 with four Bluetooth phones  
The DECT3181 can save the pairing information for four different  
Bluetooth phones, but it can only use one cellular line at any given  
time. For example, if you pair the DECT3181 to four Bluetooth  
phones, when you press cELLLink on the handset, the DECT3181  
asks which phone you want to connect to.  
If you are using the DECT3181 to talk on one Bluetooth phone, the  
DECT3181 will not ring if a call comes in on another phone.  
You can set a different ring tone for each paired cellular phone (see  
page 16).  
To pair another Bluetooth phone, just repeat the pairing procedure  
with the new phone. (If the paired phones interfere when you’re  
pairing the new one, just turn off Bluetooth on any paired phones  
until you finish pairing the the new one.)

TM  
Seꢃng Up MULTIRANGE Chargers  
If the model number ends in an r, at least one of the chargers  
included with your phone is a MULTIRANGE charger.  
The MULTIRANGETM charger extends the range of your base in all  
directions, including up and down. Each handset will automatically  
connect to the charger or the base, depending on which signal is stronger.  
If your phone includes a MULTIRANGE charger, you will have a  
separate manual discussing the charger in detail, including how it  
works, how to reset it, etc.  
Your base supports a total of 2 DRX312 MULTIRANGE chargers,  
including any that were supplied with your phone.  
Any MULTIRANGE charger included with your phone is ready to use  
out of the box. Just pick the best location and plug it in.  
To place a MULTIRANGE charger  
Make sure you have a strong signal from the base (at least 3 bars in  
the handset display).  
Put the charger at least 35 feet away from the base or any other  
MULTIRANGE charger. (If you put the charger on a different floor  
from the base, don't forget to allow 35 feet vertically, also.)  
for more information, see the DrX312 user guide.

Call waiꢁng  
Call Waiting is a service available from your telephone provider that lets  
you receive calls while you are on another call. Caller ID on Call Waiting  
(CIDCW) service displays Caller ID information for a waiting call. You might  
have to subscribe to these services separately for your land line and your  
cellular phones. Contact your telephone provider(s) for more information.  
If you get a Call Waiting call, the phone sounds a tone and displays any  
CID information received for the waiting call. To switch between the  
current call and the waiting call, press TaLk/fLash (if you’re on the land  
line) or cELLLink (if you’re on a cellular line). Remember, each time you  
switch, there is a short pause before you’re connected to the other caller.  
Using Caller ID and Redial Lists  
Caller ID (CID) is a service available from your telephone provider that  
shows the phone number (and sometimes the caller’s name) of incoming  
calls. You might have to subscribe to CID service separately for your land

line and your cellular phones. Contact your telephone provider(s) for  
more information.  
On CellLink calls, you might see the name of your cellular  
phone in place of the caller’s name.

The phone saves the information for  
the last 30 received calls to the CID list.  
Land line calls and CellLink calls are

records have an asterisk next to the  
received time.  
When the phone’s in standby, each  
handset shows how many calls came  
in since the last time you checked the  
CID list.

Each time you download the phonebook from a paired cellular phone,  
the DECT3181 overwrites any previous copy of that phonebook in its  
directory. The phone automatically cancels the download if it receives an  
incoming call or someone tries to make an outgoing call.  
While a phonebook is downloading, do not try to use either the cellular  
phone or the DECT3181. If the download is interrupted or canceled, the  
DECT3181 reverts to the original copy of the downloaded phonebook in  
its directory.  
If you delete the pairing information for a cellular phone, the downloaded  
phonebook from that phone will also be deleted.

Expanding your phone  
Your base supports a total of 12 cordless handsets: the one that came  
with the base and up to 11 DCX310, DRX312, or DWX317 accessory  
handsets.  
Your base might be compatible with other Uniden accessory  
handsets: please visit our website for a list of compatible handsets.  
Accessory handsets must be registered to the base before you can  
use them. Handsets that aren't registered display a Handset not  
registered message. For instructions on registering handsets to the  
base, see page 37, or consult the accessory handset manual.  
Any accessory handsets that came packaged with the base are already  
registered for you.  
If a handset was previously registered to a base, you have to reset it  
so you can register it to a new base (see page 37 or the manual for  
the accessory handset).  
Conference calling  
When an outside call comes in on the land line, two handsets can join  
in a conference call with that outside caller.  
To join an ongoing call, press TaLk/fLash or sPEakER.  
To leave the conference call, hang up normally; the other handset  
remains connected to the call.  
Privacy mode  
You can prevent other handsets from joining a land line call. Start your  
call as usual, then press MEnu/sELEcT: the display shows Call Privacy  
Press MEnu/sELEcT again to turn privacy mode on (you’ll see in the

Using Special features  
Do Not Disturb (DND)  
The Do Not Disturb feature (DND) turns off the ringers on the base  
and all handsets at the same time.  
You can turn on DND from the base whenever the phone is in  
standby: just press and hold dO nOT disTuRB for about a second. The  
phone automatically turns on the answering system and shows Do  
Not Disturb on all handsets.  
To turn DND off, press dO nOT disTuRB again.  
If you turn the answering system off while DND is on, the phone turns  
off DND along with the answering system.  
Chain dialing  
If you often have to enter a series of digits or a code number during  
a call, you can save that code number to a phonebook entry and use  
the phonebook to send the code number.  
Enter the code number (up to 20 digits) into the phonebook just like a  
regular phonebook entry. Be sure to enter the code number into the  
phonebook exactly as you would enter it during a call.  
When you hear the prompt that tells you to enter the number, open  
the phonebook and find the entry that contains your code number.  
Press MEnu/sELEcT to transmit the code. Or, if you change your mind,  
use PhOnEBOOk/LEfT to close the phonebook.  
Voice message noꢁficaꢁon  
This feature supports Frequency-Shift Keying (FSK) message  
notification. Contact your voice mail provider for more details.  
If you subscribe to a voice mail service, your phone can notify you  
when you have a new message waiting.

Noise or staꢁc on the line  
Interference is the most common cause of noise or static on a cordless  
phone. Here are some common sources of interference:  
electrical appliances, especially microwave ovens  
computer equipment, especially wireless LAN equipment and DSL  
modems  
radio-based wireless devices, such as room monitors, wireless  
controllers, or wireless headphones or speakers  
fluorescent light fixtures (especially if they give off a buzzing noise)  
other services that use your phone line, like alarm systems, intercom  
systems, or broadband Internet service  
If static is on 1 handset or in 1 If static is on all handsets or in  
location: all locations:  
-
Check nearby for one of the  
common interference sources.  
-
Check near the base for the  
source of interference.  
-
Try moving the handset away  
from a suspected source, or try  
moving the suspected source  
so it’s not between the handset  
and the base.  
There is always more noise at  
the edges of the base’s range.  
If an Out of Range message  
displays, try moving closer to  
the base.  
-
Try moving the base away from  
a suspected source, or turn off  
the source if possible.  
If the base has an adjustable  
antenna, try raising the antenna  
so it stands straight up.  
If you have any service that uses  
the phone line, you might need  
a filter (see below).  
-
-
-
Installing a line filter or DSL filter  
Sometimes, broadband Internet services that use the telephone line  
can interfere with phones. One of these services−DSL−often causes  
static on telephones. A DSL filter or telephone line filter usually solves  
this problem. The technician who installed your DSL service might have  
left some filters for you; if not, call your DSL provider or look in any  
electronics store.  
35  
 
 
Plug the DSL filter into the telephone wall jack and plug your phone’s base  
into the filter. Make a test call to make sure the noise is gone.  
Do you use a T-Coil hearing aid?  
-
If you have a hearing aid equipped with a telecoil (T-coil) feature, the  
interaction between the hearing aid and digital cordless phones can  
cause noise in the handset. If you have a T-coil hearing aid and you have  
problems with noise on the line, try turning on T-coil mode. Open the  
menu. Select Handset Setup, then select T-coil  
.
-
Using T-coil mode can shorten the handset’s talk time; make sure to  
watch the battery status and keep the battery charged.  
Liquid damage  
Moisture and liquid can damage your cordless phone. If the exterior  
housing of the handset or base is exposed to moisture or liquid, wipe off  
the liquid, and use as normal. If moisture or liquid is inside the plastic  
housing (i.e. liquid can be heard in the phone or liquid has entered the  
handset battery compartment or vent openings on the base), follow these  
steps:  
Handset  
Base  
-
Remove the battery cover and  
disconnect the battery.  
Let dry for at least 3 days with the  
battery disconnected and the cover off  
for ventilation.  
After the handset dries, reconnect the  
battery and replace the cover. Recharge  
the battery fully before using.  
-
Disconnect the AC  
adapter to cut off the  
power.  
-
-
-
Disconnect the  
telephone cord.  
Let dry for at least  
3 days before  
reconnecting.  
-
CAUTION! DO NOT use a microwave oven to speed up the  
drying process. This will cause permanent damage to the  
handset, base, and the microwave oven.  
Changing from Tone to Pulse Dialing  
Your phone communicates with the land line telephone network two  
ways: tone dialing or pulse dialing. Most telephone companies use tone  
36  
 
   
dialing. If your phone company uses pulse dialing, you will need to change  
your phone’s dial mode.  
1. From a handset, open the menu and select Global Setup  
.
2. Select Dial Mode, then select Pulse. The phone sounds a  
confirmation tone.  
If you use pulse dialing and you need to send DTMF tones during a call  
(if you’re using an automated response system, for example), press  
to temporarily switch to tone dialing. When the call ends, the phone  
automatically returns to pulse dialing mode.

AC Adapter and Baꢁery Informaꢀon  
Use only the supplied AC adapters. Be sure to use the proper adapter  
for the base and any chargers.  
Do not place the power cord where it creates a trip hazard or where it  
could become chafed and create a fire or electrical hazard.  
Do not place the unit in direct sunlight or subject it to high  
temperatures.  
Fully charged, the battery should provide about 10 hours of talk time  
and about 7 days of standby time. For best results, return the handset  
to the cradle after each call to keep it fully charged.  
When the battery gets too low, the handset shows a low battery alert.  
If you hear a strange beep during a call, check the display: if you see  
the low battery alert, finish your conversation as quickly as possible  
and return the handset to the cradle. If the handset is in standby,  
none of the keys will operate.  
38  
 
With normal use, the battery should last about one year. Replace the  
battery when the talk time becomes short even when the battery is
