Introduction
Your BT Quartet 2010 cordless telephone is designed for ease of use and is made to BT’s high standards.
The BT Quartet 2010 combines the advantages of cordless operation with the performance of a high quality telephone. It offers unparalleled quality and features.
Cordless telephone functions
Your Quartet 2010 offers you the convenience and flexibility of a cordless telephone system and has been specifically designed to be easy to use. You can use up to 4 handsets with the base unit and transfer calls between them. The handset is highly functional and has a clear and simple display to assist you to use the many helpful features of your telephone, and BT Select Services.
Directory
The Directory, which you access via the directory button, allows you to store up to 20 names and numbers in alphabetical order. You can scroll through and edit or delete them. You can also preview entries and set up calls directly from them.
Select Services
Your Quartet 2010 is designed to make it easy for you to access and manage BT’s Friends & Family and certain BT Select Services. For instance, you may also want to change the time for your Reminder Call or switch Call Waiting on or off.
These can all be edited, enabled or cancelled via the handset display.
Handset functions
Apart from some very basic functions on the base unit and charger, your Quartet 2010 is managed almost entirely from the handset. Using the handset’s display screen and buttons, you can edit and activate the functions of your Quartet 2010, both on and off-line. The main method of control, is via a tree of menus, which you can access and navigate through by using buttons beneath the display. Please see ‘Menu options’, page 8.
