Deutsche Telekom's T-Net Box Project

Explanation:
T-Net:

Deutsche Telekom's T-Net Box is a virtual Net-based answering machine that can be listened to, operated, and configured from any telephone by using a PIN number. Within the framework of the Eco-TopTen Project, the Eco-Institute has established that the use of the T-Net Box manifests major environmental benefits when compared to the classic answering machine (mainly with regard to primary energy consumption and disposal).

You can find T-Net codes on page 59 here:

To know the exact meaning of BL here, name of the country which ordered the phone and the phone brand are needed.

recall b.l. recall outside line (code)

Explanation:
a guess (B.L. may be an abbreviation for the Swedish for 'outside line').

In situations where there is an internal exchange (private branch exchange or PBX), which is common in businesses and hotels, it is often necessary to dial a short code to get an outside line, after which you can dial the 'regular' number.

BTW, you might try googling for the user's manual of the manufacturer of the phone in question. If you can find it (and the translation is OK), it could answer a lot of questions.

'T-net' presumably stands for 'telephone network' (as in public telephone network)
