Uniden TRU9488 Phone Questions & Answers
Hi, could you tell me
Dial 1 then the country code and then the number or just dial "0" for the operator and have them do it for you.
Uniden 6.0 with 2 handsets
Unplugged all telephones but one and still had trouble so I called Verizon. They discovered it was an incoming line that was malfunctioning. However, the Uniden telephone system still does not work and since it is still under warranty I will contact them.
To continue the solution of my telephone problem - It was discovered that the incoming line was indis repair. After it was repaired, I again set up my Uniden telephone system. It works with no problem. The word "searching"still appears on the face of the units, but it can be overcome with normal activity on the units.
How to retrieve messages from the answering machine ..remotely
Remotely Operating Your Answering Machine
Call your telephone number and wait for the answering machine to answer. If the answering machine is off, it will answer after about 10 rings and series of beeping sounds.
During the greeting message (or a series of beeps when the answering machine is off), press [0] and enter your PIN code within 2 seconds (see "Setting a Security Code or Personal Identification Number (PIN)" on page 54).
The answering machine announces the current time and the number of messages stored in memory. You hear "To play incoming messages, press zero-two. For help, press one-zero." You will hear a beep.
Enter a remote command within 15 seconds, each command there after must be entered within 2 seconds.

Uniden hand set
What is the model # of your handset. It must be tcx 900 or tcx 905 to be compatible with the tru 9488. Good luck! :)
E4 error code
I called Uniden about the same problem. They say it is a code that means it is defective base unit. I had purchased it within one year and they will gladly send me a new one. I don't know if they will offer anything beyond the one year mark.
They say it was a spike in the power lines that causes this error.
Can I add another uniden hand set to a uniden D1680 series
The Uniden D-1680 system can have up to 12 handsets registered to the base. (The phone system was sold in bundles with 0 to 11 accessory handsets.) However, this cordless phone system has been discontinued. I can only find used DCX160 handsets (the compatible accessory handset) on Amazon and E-bay.
I hope this helps.

Sync 2 versions of Uniden Dect 6.0 to work off the same base.
Yes, you can join an older and a newer version of Uniden Dect 6.0 cordless phones to work off the same base. Here are the steps to sync them:
- Disconnect the power cord from the base of both phones.
- Take the battery out of each handset.
- Wait for a few minutes.
- Reconnect the power cord to the base of the newer version phone and insert its battery.
- Wait for the phone to register on the base, which should take a few seconds.
- Once the newer phone has registered, repeat steps 4 and 5 with the older version phone.
- The older version phone should now register on the same base.
- Test the phones to make sure they are working properly.
If for some reason the phones do not register on the same base, refer to the instruction manual that came with the newer version phone for further troubleshooting steps.
