compartment cover by sliding
the ends into the holes inside
the compartment, pressing
down and pushing the other

Setting up for multiple packs

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 (item code 032765) into the
socket marked on the underside of the charger.
If you experience any problems, please call the Helpline on Freephone 0800 145 6789* or email bt.helpdesk@sgweurope.com
Battery low warning
If the icon flashes in the display
you will need to recharge the handset
before you can use it again.
During charging, the icon will
scroll in the display.
Battery performance
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
rechargeable 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.
