Getting started	7

Location

You need to place your BT Synergy base within 2 metres of the mains power socket and telephone socket so that the cables will reach.

Make sure it is at least 1 metre away from other electrical appliances to avoid interference. Your BT Synergy works by sending radio signals between the handset and base. The strength of the signal depends on where you site the base. Putting it as high as possible ensures the best signal.

Setting up

Connect the base

1.Plug the mains power cable into the socket marked on the underside of the base and plug the other end into the mains power wall socket and switch the power on.

The telephone cable is pre-installed in the base but do not connect the other end to the telephone wall socket yet.

Telephone line cord (pre-installed)

WARNING

Do not place your BT Synergy in the bathroom or other humid areas.

Handset range

The BT Synergy has a range of up to 300 metres outdoors when there is a clear line of sight between the base and handset. Any obstruction between the base and handset will reduce the range significantly. With the base indoors and handset either indoors or outdoors, the range will normally be up to 50 metres. Thick stone walls can severely affect the range.

Signal strength

The icon on your handset indicates when you are in range. When out of range of the base the icon will flash and the out-of-range tone will sound every minute. This tone is repeated until

you move back into range.

IMPORTANT

The base station must be plugged into the mains power at all times. Do not connect the telephone line cord into the wall socket until the handset is fully charged. Only use the power and telephone cables supplied with the product.

If you experience any problems, please call the Helpline on 0800 145 6789* or email [e-mail]

2.Activate the batteries as described previously above.

3.Place the handset on the charger to charge for at least 24 hours. When the handset is fully charged the icon will indicate that it is fully charged.

Your BT Synergy 5500 is ready for use.

Date and time

Providing you have subscribed to your network’s Caller Display service, the date and time is set automatically for all handsets when you receive your first call. The date and time is recorded with each answering machine message you receive.

If you do not have a Caller Display service you can set the date and time manually. Please see page 30 for these instructions.

Removing the batteries

If you ever need to remove the batteries, simply slide open the battery compartment cover and pull the ribbon away from the handset to release the batteries.

If you experience any problems, please call the Helpline on 0800 145 6789* or email [e-mail]
