Getting started

If the 

 icon flashes in the external display 

you will need to recharge the handset before 

you can use it again.

During charging, the 

 icon will scroll in  

the display.

In ideal conditions, fully charged batteries should 

give about 10 hours talk time or 100 hours 

standby time on a single charge.
Note that new batteries do not reach full capacity 

until they have been in normal use for several 

days.
To keep your batteries in the best condition, leave 

the handset off the base for a few hours at a time.
Running the batteries right down at least once a 

week will help them last as long as possible.
The charge capacity of rechargeable batteries 

will reduce with time as they wear out, giving 

the handset less talk/standby time. Eventually 

they will need to be replaced. New batteries are 

available from the BT Synergy Helpline on  

0800 145 6789*.
After charging your handset for the first time, 

subsequent charging time is about 6–8 hours a 

day. Batteries and handset may become warm 

during charging. This is normal.

2.  Make sure the battery ribbon is 

laying flat inside the compartment 
and insert the two batteries supplied 
observing the polarity markings 
(+ and -).

.  Attach the battery compartment 

cover by sliding the ends into the 
holes inside the compartment, 
pressing down and pushing the other 
end along until it clicks into place.

4.  Place the handset on the base to 

charge for at least 24 hours. The red 
charging light comes on. When the 
handset is fully charged the display 
shows the 

 icon.

5.  After 24 hours, plug the telephone 

line cord from the base into the 
telephone wall socket.

  If you have purchased a multiple pack, this process will need to be carried out 

for all handsets and chargers:

1.  Plug the mains power cable into the socket marked   on the underside of  

the charger.
