You can connect your Symphony a line connected to a local exchange, with its own phone number; to an extension socket connected to a DEL; or to an extension on an approved compatible PBX. Do not connect the Symphony extension to a payphone.

The ringer equivalence numbers (RENs) of all instruments (phones, fax machines, etc.) connected to an exchange line must not add up to more than 4 — otherwise, one or more of them may not ring and/or answer calls correctly. The Symphony other telephones have a REN of 1 unless marked otherwise

If you’re using the SMS text messaging facility,

please note that only one SMS phone connected to the line can receive messages. So you shouldn’t connect another SMS-compatible phone to the same line as your Symphony

To use your handset and base unit together, you must be able to establish a radio link between them. Be aware that:

■

Any large metal object — like a refrigerator, a mirror or a filing cabinet — between the handset and the base unit may block the radio signal.

■

Other solid structures, like walls, may reduce the signal strength.

IMPORTANT — The Symphony charger pod must be used with the mains adapter supplied with the unit. Using any other adapter will result in non-compliance with EN60950, and will invalidate any approval given to this apparatus.

Installation and set-up

Charge the batteries for 15 hours

Before you use the handset for the first time, it’s important to charge the batteries fully.

The handset ‘beeps’ when it’s correctly in position on the charging cradle.

Leave the handset on the charging cradle for 15 hours.

The battery charge level symbol should increase by one bar every half hour when you’re charging an empty battery.If you think that the symbol isn’t showing the correct battery charge level, remove and refit the batteries.

Keeping the batteries charged

When you don’t need to use the handset (for example, overnight or when you go out), replace it on the base unit or charger pod, to keep the batteries charged.

Whenever the battery charge level symbol shows ‘nearly empty’( ), place the handset on the base unit or charger pod to charge the batteries.

Connect the base unit to the telephone line

Switch off power at the mains socket Insert the telephone line plug into the

while on a call, this is probably caused by interference between the handset and the base unit, perhaps because you are too near to another phone or other electrical equipment.

Move to a different position to clear the interference. If you do not move, your call may be cut off.

Radio interference in the environment may occasionally

cause a short break in the link between the handset and the base unit while you are on a call. The handset’s display may briefly show is restored.

If you hear a warning tone during a call, and/or the sound in the earpiece becomes faint or distorted, you may be going out of range of the base unit. Move nearer to the base unit within 20 seconds, until the tone stops. Otherwise, your call may be cut off.

Caller Display

This network feature lets you see the phone numbers of your callers on the display, before you answer. To sub scribe to Caller Display, simply call the company that supplies your telephone line; they’ll set it up for you.

With Caller Display, the Symphony

2600 will store the

numbers of the last 20 callers, so you can call them back later. When all 20 Caller Display memories are full, the next incoming number will overwrite the oldest one. In idle mode, the display shows how many calls you have missed.

SMS text messaging — read this first

SMS stands for short message service — also called text messaging, or just texting. Users whose phones

support SMS can send each other messages with up to 160 characters(140 charactoron mobile phones).

Your Symphony can send and receive SMS messages to and from mobile phones and compatible land-line phones. You can also send messages to non-SMS phones; the messages will be converted into speech.

The SMS service is provided by BT. If your network

provider (the company that supplies your telephone line) is not BT, and you find you can’t send or receive text messages, check that the network provider supports the BT SMS service in your area.

2600

Caller Display IMPORTANT — to use the SMS service, you must

Registering for the SMS service

subscribe to the Caller Display service (see also page

22) from your network provider; you can’t use the SMS service without Caller Display.

By sending your first SMS text message, you automatically register for the service, and you’ll receive a text message welcoming you. You may also receive other text messages with information about the service.

It is occasionally possible to become de-registered from the BT SMS service — for example, when a message cannot be delivered because your SMS phone is switched off. If this happens, you’ll start to receive text messages as spoken calls from the Messaging Centre.

Usually, you can automatically re-register by simply sending another text message. If you have problems, turn to page for advice.

Your Symphony 2600 is preprogrammed with two telephone numbers for the SMS service — the Send number and the Receive number. These are:

BT service numbers

* The SMS service will not work if your number is not sent to the network when you send messages.

1470P17094009

The 1470 ensures that your number is not withheld on this call, even if you normally withhold it*.

The P inserts a pause before dialling the number.

The9at the back is the terminal number

for all messages.

0800587529

The9at the back is the terminal number

for all messages.

It’s important to leave these numbers as they are. If they’ve been accidentally changed, you’ll need to reprogram them as described on page

31.

Your Symphony 2600 has two message boxes:

■

The Inbox, which holds messages you’ve received from other people (incoming messages).

■

Draft Box, where you can store complete or partwritten messages to send later.

The total number of messages that can be stored in the message boxes is 20. When the SMS memory is full, the handset’s display appears RED

If the handset’s display is blank, it may be switched off. Press the HANG UP button to switch it back on.

Check that the base unit’s mains power adapter is plugged in and power is switched on. The base unit needs mains power for normal operation of the phone — not just for charging the batteries.

Make sure you’re using the telephone line cable supplied with your Symphony 2600. Other telephone line cables might not work.

Move the handset closer to the base unit. Check the Battery Level symbol on the display. If it is

low, replace the handset on the base unit or charger pod to recharge the batteries.

nected to your telephone line is no more than 4 (see page 2). Disconnect one or more telephones and see whether that helps.

Troubleshooting

“My call was cut

off when I went out of range. Now I can’t use my handset.”

“There is inter

ference and noise on the line.”

“I hear ‘beeps’

from my handset while I’m on a call.”

“The handset’s

display shows

Searching

”

Move the handset closer to the base unit before you try again to make a call.

Move the handset closer to the base unit, or to a

different position. Try moving the base unit so that it’s not near other

electrical equipment, such as a television or a computer.

You’ll get the best results if you site the base unit as high as possible. For example, in a two-storey house, the first-floor landing is an ideal place for the base unit.

You may be going out of range of the base unit. Move closer, or your call may be cut off.

Check the Battery Level symbol on the display. If it’s low, recharge the batteries.

Check that the base unit’s mains power adapter is plugged in and power is switched on.

Move the handset closer to the base unit. If you have a new handset, not supplied as part of your

original Symphony 2600 system, you need to register it to the base unit (see page 28).

“When I try to

make a call, I hear Busy tone.”

“The volume in

You need to subscribe to the Caller Display feature

from BT or your network service provider. You should find contact details on your phone bill.

The caller may have withheld their number by dialling

141. Or they may be calling from a network that does not transmit the caller’s number (for example, it may be an international call).

If you’re using a Symphony 2600 multi-handset system, check that another handset isn’t already busy on a call.

Make sure you’re holding the earpiece correctly over your ear.

Adjust the volume using the or button.

Troubleshooting

Check that the Send and Receive phone numbers in your Symphony 2600 have not been accidentally changed. Use the steps listed on page to check the

numbers, and correct them if necessary — Send: 1470P1709400; Receive: 080058752

Terminal: 9

Is your telephone line supplied by Telewest or NTL? In some areas, lines supplied by these companies do not support the BT SMS service.

If you route your calls through a different service provider from the one which supplies your line, it’s possible that this could cause problems. Contact the Binatone Help Line for advice.

“I can’t receive

text messages.”

If there’s a problem with receiving text messages on your phone, they will arrive as spoken messages — the BT Message Centre will call you and you’ll be told how to listen to your messages. Here’s what to do:

1 Check that the Receive phone number in your

Symphony 2600 has not been accidentally changed. Use the steps listed on page to check the number, and correct it if necessary. It should be 080058752 and the Terminal number should be 9.

2 If you’re sure the Receive number and Terminal number

are correct, try this: write a text message with just one

word — 00000 (five zeroes).

3 A short time later, you should receive a text message

from the Message Centre. You’ll then be able to receive text messages as normal.

Batteries

Troubleshooting

“The handset‘s

battery pack is running low within an hour or two.”

“I try to

recharge the batteries, but I still get a warning that they are low.”

Before you first used the handset, you should have left it on the base unit or charger pod for up to 15 hours to charge the batteries fully.

You may need to replace the batteries (see overleaf).

Clean the battery charging contacts with a dry cloth. Check the connections between the base unit and the

mains power socket. You need to replace the batteries. To find out how to

obtain replacements, call the Department on 0845 345 9677, between 9.00 am and

5.00 pm, Monday to Friday. Dispose of used batteries safely — never burn them,

or put them where they could get punctured.

DON’T use non-rechargeable batteries in your Symphony — they may burst, causing damage.

Binatone Service

If the fault persists …

Disconnect all other instruments connected to the same line as the Symphony 2600 and see whether you can make a call.

Disconnect the base unit from the telephone line and plug a different phone into the master telephone socket. Try making a call. If this works, the line is OK.

If the call does not work, and you are using a two-way socket adapter, remove it and plug a telephone directly into the socket. If the call now works, the adapter may be faulty.

If you cannot make a call, the fault may be on the exchange line. Contact the service provider (the BT engineers on 151, or your cable company).

If you still cannot identify the cause of the problem, contact the on 0845 345 9677
