Uniden DECT 6.0 Cordless Phone - Page 4 Questions & Answers
How do I cancel a hold?
just a shot in the dark, try unhooking the battery in the fhone or unplug the unit . good luck .
Numbers 2, 5, & 8 do not work on my Uniden 6.0 cordless handset.
IF YOU ARE mechanically inclined you can take the phone apart and under the rubber keypad and contact board, with a small amount of soapy warm water on a cloth rag, wipe the gold contacts and the board, the keypad can be lightly scrubbed with a tooth brush under running warm water..NOW dry everything ! reassemble. it might be soda pop that's blocking contact or dog drool ? (my dog says the cat did it !) any how this is your best chance, and is not that difficult of a task, works for tv remotes too but they are harder nut to crack, generally phones come right apart, tools needed (small screwdriver kit) good luck Patsy. and if'n I was of any help, a reply would be nice.. jay
Why are the Uniden DECT 6.0 phones blinking yellow
It is a message indicator light, and very aggravating when you've listened to the messages. Two solutions-- First, yes, absolutely once you've listened to your new messages, push the Page Button on the base unit for five seconds until it stops beeping. That should stop the light.And for me it worked the first time. Not the second time. Then, I found out that the phone's answering machine, which I don't use, had been turned on, received a message (yes, from an automated telemarketer of course!) and then been turned off. So when I turned it back on, I saw "1" on the display. Press delete all messages and the light goes off. So check the actual physical answering machine too if your phone has one.
How do you set up voicemail; on a uniden dect 6.0?
Which exact model Uniden DECT phone do you have? There are a number of models. Some require you to set up the answering machine from a handset. Other models have a Menu button on the base station, as well. The entire list of DECT phone manuals are here:
http://www.uniden.com/scat/dectphones_mnl . They are listed in alphabetical and numerical order. Ignore any digits after the dash in the model number, that indicates the number of handsets in the original package. My experience with Uniden DECT phones includes systems where the menu is accessed from the base like the D3588, http://www.uniden.com/content/ebiz/uniden/resources/ownersmanuals/D3588om.pdf .
The following directions work for the Uniden systems that I have used to set up the . First make sure that the answering system is on at the base station and the phone is in standby. Next press the Menu/Select button and use the Up/Down arrows to navigate to Answering Setup. Press Menu/Select to enter the submenu. Then navigate to the different options in this menu and press Menu/Select to enter them.
To record a greeting message, navigate to Record Greeting. Press Select and wait for the "Record Greeting" response. Speak your greeting clearly (between 2 and 30 seconds) and press Select to Stop the recording. You'll hear the greeting repeated. Press End (on the handset) or Stop/Cancel on the base to interrupt the playback.
Next press the Phone Book button to go back up to the Answer Setup menu. Select Greeting Options to switch greetings (if your model has a default greeting). Use Select to switch between greetings. (Arrow keys to swap; Select to confirm.) Use the Ring Time option to select how many rings before the unit picks up. If you wish to use the answering system when you are away, make sure to set up a Security code and press Select to confirm the code. Make a note of the code. Press End to exit the menu system.
Note: if you have Voicemail from your telephone provider, you will need to ensure that your Uniden phone picks up before the Voicemail service.
I hope this helps.

How does standby mode work?
The standby mode is when the phone isn't doing anything. You're not currently on a call, you're not dialing one, and no one is calling you. The phone is simply standing by, waiting for you to call someone or for someone to call you.
