BT Calypso 225 – Edition 03 – 20.10.05 – 6875

This User Guide provides you with all
the information you need to get the
most from your phone.

You must first set up your phone before
you can use it. This doesn’t take long
and is easy to do. Just follow the simple
instructions on the next few pages.

Need help?

If you have any problems setting up or using your 
BT Calypso, contact the Helpline on 0870 605 8047.

Alternatively, you may find the answer in ‘Help’ at the
back of this guide.

Hearing aid?

Please note that the BT Calypso works by sending radio
signals between the base and handset. These signals may
interfere with some hearing aids, causing a humming noise.
