Safety information  
General  
Only use the power supply included with the product.  
Using an unauthorised power supply will invalidate your  
guarantee and may damage the telephone. The item  
number for the mains power supply is 005391.  
Simply clean the handset and base station with a damp  
(not wet) cloth, or an anti-static wipe. Never use  
household polish as this will damage the product.  
Never use a dry cloth as this may cause a static shock.  
Only use the approved rechargeable battery pack supplied.  
Spare battery packs – item code 003267 are available  
from the BT Synergy Helpline on 08706 058 047.  
Do not open the handset or base station. This could  
expose you to high voltages or other risks. Contact the  
Synergy Helpline 08706 058 047 for all repairs.  
Radio signals transmitted between the handset and base  
may cause interference to hearing aids.  
This product should not be used near emergency/  
intensive care medical equipment and should not be used  
by people with pacemakers.  
Your product may interfere with other electrical  
equipment, e.g. TV and radio sets, clock/alarms and  
computers if placed too close. It is recommended that you  
place your product at least one metre away from such  
appliances to minimise any risk of intereference.  
Never dispose of the battery pack in a fire. There is a  
serious risk of explosion and / or the release of highly  
toxic chemicals.  
Environmental  
Do not expose to direct sunlight.  
The product may heat up when the battery pack is being  
recharged. This is normal. However, we recommend that  
you do not place the product on antique/veneered wood to  
avoid damage.  
Do not stand your product on carpets or other surfaces  
which generate fibres, or place it in locations preventing  
the free flow of air over its surfaces.  
Do not submerge any part of your product in water and do  
not use it in damp conditions, such as bathrooms.  
Do not expose your product to fire, explosive or other  
hazardous conditions.  
There is a slight chance that your phone could be  
damaged by an electrical storm. We recommend that you  
unplug the power and telephone line cord for the  
duration of the storm.

machine. See page 14.  
Position your Synergy 700 within 2  
metres of a power socket and phone  
socket otherwise extension cables will  
be required.  
Note  
The base station must be plugged into  
the mains power socket at all times.  
Make sure it is at least 1 metre away  
from other electrical products to avoid  
interference.  
Do not connect the telephone line  
cord to the phone socket until your  
handset is fully charged. This will  
prevent the risk of the phone being  
answered before the battery pack is  
charged. Answering the phone before  
the battery pack is fully charged may  
prevent it from reaching its optimum  
capacity.  
Do not place your Synergy 700 product  
in the bathroom or other humid areas.

To set the day and time  
Battery performance  
The charge capacity of rechargeable  
battery packs will reduce with time as  
they wear out, so reducing talk/standby  
time of the handset. Eventually they  
will need to be replaced. New battery  
packs (item code: 003267) can be  
obtained from the Helpline on 08706  
058 047.  
The message counter on the

Your Synergy 700 automatically  
adds the day and time to all  
messages and memos received.  
After charging your handset for the  
first time, subsequent charging time  
for the battery pack is approximately  
6-8 hours a day. Battery pack and  
case may become warm during  
charging, this is normal.  
When you first switch the  
power on, the clock is set to  
Sunday, 12.01pm. You can  
change the day and time as  
required.  
Under ideal conditions, the handset  
battery pack should give about 12  
hours talktime or 150 hours standby  
on a single charge. (This does not  
mean you can unplug the base station  
or leave it for this length of time  
without charge.)  
Press the

the Synergy 700 handset.  
Note  
The main menu announcements  
are automatically announced
