All items of telephone equipment havea Ringer Equivalence Number (REN),which is used to calculate the numberof items which may be connected to anyone telephone line. Your Quartet 3100has a REN of 1. A total REN of 4 isallowed. If the total REN of 4 isexceeded, the telephones may not ring.With different telephone types there isno guarantee of ringing, even when theREN is less than 4.
Please note that any additionalhandsets and chargers that you registerhave a REN of 0.
Only use approved power supply, itemcode: 872264.
Only use approved batteries, item code006988.

Quartet 3100 User Guide ~ 6th Edition ~ 3rd September ’02 ~ 4388
40

Note
When fully charged and in goodcondition, the handset will provide upto 7 hours talktime or 72 hoursstandby.
If you are making a call and thehandset battery is running low you willhear a warning tone every 10-15seconds.
Place the handset on the base unit torecharge.
However, the charge capacity ofrechargeable batteries will reduce withtime as they wear out, so reducing thetalk/standby time of the handset.

To get the longest possible life fromyour battery, take the handset off thebase unit for a few hours each day.
Call security
Your Quartet 3100 has its own digitalsecurity code that prevents othercordless phone owners from using yourphone line. This ensures that you arecharged only for calls using your phone.However, all approved cordless phonesuse radio signals to communicatebetween the base unit and cordlesshandset units. It is therefore possible thatyour conversations could be overheardby other people, on their cordlessphones, or on ordinary radios that usethe same radio frequencies.
As this problem applies equally to allsimilar cordless phones currentlyavailable in the UK, call privacy cannotbe guaranteed. However, the securitycoding prevents unauthorised use ofyour line.
