■ When the instructions tell you to ‘press and hold’ a button, this means you should keep the button pressed until the display changes and/or you hear a tone.
Important note — emergency calls
The Symphony 2200is not designed for making emergency calls when the mains power fails. So you should make alternative arrangements for access to Emergency Services.
(This means that you should also have a basic phone that does not need mains power, connected to your line so that you can make calls during a power failure.)

To register to a new base unit
If your handset is already registered to a base unit, and you want to register it to
12 Baby Call | 13 Operational notes |
The handsets supplied with your Symphony2200 system are already registered to the base unit. You don t need to register them yourself.

Electrical safety
■DON’T let the base unit get wet. Electrical equipment can cause serious injury if used while you are wet or standing in water.
■If the base unit ever falls into water, DON’T retrieve it until you have unplugged the power lead from the mains and the telephone line plug from the telephone socket; then pull it out by the unplugged cables.
■NEVER use your Symphony2200 outdoors during a thunderstorm— unplug the base unit from the telephone line and the mains socket when there are storms in your area. Damage caused by lightning is not covered by the guarantee.
Siting the base unit and charger pod
The base unit and charger pod should each be placed on a level surface, in a position where:
■the mains adapter plug will reach an easily accessible
■the telephone line cable will reach your telephone line socket or extension socket (base unit only; charger pods have no connection to the telephone line)
■it is not close to another telephone — this can cause radio interference during calls
■it is not close to a sink, bath or shower, or anywhere else where it might get wet
■it is not close to other electrical equipment — fridges, washing machines, microwave ovens, TVs, fluorescent lights, etc.
Radio signals between the handset and the base unit
To use your handset and base unit together, you must be able to establish a radio link between them. Be aware that:
■Siting the base unit as high as possible will give better results — for example, in a
■Any large metal object — like a refrigerator, a mirror or a filing cabinet — between the handset and base unit may block the radio signal.
■Other solid structures, like walls, may reduce the signal strength.
23
Interference
If the sound quality gets worse as you move around while on a call, this is probably due to interference between the handset and the base unit, perhaps because you are too near to another phone or other electrical equipment. Move to a different position to clear the interference. If you do not move, your call may be cut off.
Radio interference in the environment may occasionally cause a short break in the link between the handset and the base unit while you are on a call. The handset’s display will flash briefly, while the unit automatically changes to a different channel to restore the link.
Keeping the batteries charged
When you don’t need to carry your handsets around (for example, at night), leave them on the base unit or charger pod, to keep the batteries charged.
Whenever the battery charge level symbol on the display shows ‘nearly empty’, replace the handset on the base unit or charger pod.
‘Out of range’ warning
If you hear a warning tone during a call, and/or the sound in the earpiece becomes faint or distorted, you may be going out of range of the base unit. Move nearer to the base unit within 20 seconds, until the tone stops. Otherwise, your call may be cut off.
While you are out of range and you are not on a call, the handset’s display shows rANGEOUT and the ‘signal level’ symbol flashes. Before you make a call, you must move closer to the base unit until the handset’s name and number are displayed and the symbol stops flashing.
14 Troubleshooting
The Symphony2200 must be serviced by trained engineers. NEVER attempt
! any repairs or adjustments yourself you could make the problem worse and invalidate the Guarantee.
