System use with several handsets
43
With several handsets registered to one base, you can make your
own phone system. The handsets can all receive external calls, also
during internal calls between handsets. Handsets in the system are
numbered 1–8* and can be named as well.
Each handset is initially set up as ‘common’. This means that the
Phonebook, Caller ID list and Redial list are all updated by the base
and shared with other handsets in the system. If you want an
independent Phonebook, Caller ID list and Redial list in an
individual handset, make the handset ‘personal’ instead.
For further information about the possibilities a system setup offers,
please refer to the following pages.
*If you use a BeoCom 6000 base, a BeoLine PSTN base or a BeoLine ISDN
base, you can only register six handsets.

Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) –
Environmental protection
The European Parliament and the
Council of the European Union
have issued the Waste Electrical
and Electronic Equipment Directive.
The purpose of the Directive is the
prevention of waste of electrical
and electronic equipment, and to
promote the reuse and recycling
and other forms of recovery of
such waste. As such the Directive
concerns producers, distributors
and consumers.
Products and equipment which
must be collected for reuse,
recycling and other forms of
recovery are marked with the
pictogram shown.
When disposing of electrical and
electronic equipment by use of the
collection systems available in your
country, you protect the
environment, human health and
contribute to the prudent and
rational use of natural resources.
Collecting electrical and electronic
equipment and waste prevents the
potential contamination of nature
with the hazardous substances
which may be present in electrical
and electronic products and
equipment.
The WEEE directive requires that
both manufacturers and end-
consumers dispose of electrical
and electronic equipment and parts
in an environmentally safe manner,
and that equipment and waste are
reused or recovered for their
materials or energy.
Electrical and electronic equipment
and parts must not be disposed of
with ordinary household refuse; all
Your Bang & Olufsen retailer will
assist with and advise you of the
correct way of disposal in your
electrical and electronic equipment country.
and parts must be collected and
disposed of separately.

conformity with the
provisions of the Directives
