There is a slight chance your
phone could be damaged by
an electrical storm. We
recommend that you unplug your
Synergy 500 from the mains power
and telephone socket during storms.
The Synergy 500 will produce
a certain amount of heat
during operation. Equally, the
handset as well as any additional
chargers you purchase can also
become warm during charging.
We advise against placing these
products on antique, veneered or
wooden surfaces as damage may occur.
Do not use the Synergy 500
in damp, humid conditions
such as bathrooms. Do not
expose the equipment or batteries to
fire and water.
Do not dispose of used
batteries with general
household rubbish and do not
burn them.
Do not use the handsets in
places where there are
explosive hazards.
If you wear a hearing aid,
please note that the Synergy
500 works by sending radio
signals between the base station and
handset. These signals may interfere
with some hearing aids, causing a
humming noise.
Synergy 500 can interfere with other
electrical equipment, e.g. answering
machines, TV and radio sets, clock
radio/alarms and computers if placed
too close. It is recommended that you
place your Synergy 500 at least one
metre away from such appliances to
minimise any risk of interference.
Make sure you connect the power and
telephone lines to the correct sockets
in the base station.
Clean the handset and base station
with a damp (not wet) cloth or
antistatic wipe. Never use a dry cloth
as this may cause a static shock.
Never spray cleaning fluid directly
onto the telephone.
