2. Do not try to use any power supply except the
one provided, otherwise you may permanently
damage your Synergy 1000. It may also invalidate
approval of this apparatus. To get a replacement
Synergy charger power supply unit (Item Code:
871273) and Synergy base station power supply

3. There is a slight chance that your phone
could be damaged by an electrical storm. We
recommend that you unplug your Synergy 1000
from the mains power and telephone line socket
during storms.
4. If you wear a hearing aid, please note that the
Synergy 1000 works by sending radio signals
between the base station and handset. These
signals can interfere with hearing aids, causing
a humming noise.
5. Synergy 1000 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 1000 at least one
metre away from such appliances to avoid any
risk of interference.
6. The Synergy 1000 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.
7. We advise against placing these products on
antique, veneered or wooden surfaces as damage
may occur.
8. Do not use the Synergy 1000 in damp, humid
conditions such as bathrooms. Do not expose
the equipment or batteries to fire or water.
9. Do not dispose of used batteries with general
household rubbish and do not burn them.
10. Do not use the handsets in places where
there are explosive hazards.
11. Make sure you connect the power and
telephone lines to the correct sockets in the
base station.
The Synergy 1000 system has a range of up to
300 metres outdoors and up to 50 metres indoors.
It is possible that the range may be affected by
being near water (e.g. large ponds, lakes, the
sea) and large metal objects (e.g. radiators,
steel girders and metal partition walls).
12. 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.
