ANSWERING MACHINE OPERATION
The unit features a sophisticated Digital Answering System. Incoming Messages (ICMs),

memory. Messages are accessed instantly and arranged compactly in this memory. The
unit can store 15 minutes of messages (ICMs, OGM and Memos combined).
NOTE: The maximum Incoming Message (ICM) recording time is 2 minutes.
VOICE MENU SYSTEM
A sophisticated Voice Menu System has been designed and pre-programmed into the unit.
This system will verbally guide you through key operational procedures.
TIME / DAY STAMP
ICMs and Memo messages are automatically voice-stamped with the current time and day.
NOTE: After power failure, the time / day stamp will be lost. In this case, the time will be
incorrect. Please refer to the INITIAL SETUP section on how to set the system time and

SETTING THE RINGS SWITCH (TS / 6 / 2)
The number of rings before the answering system answers a call can
be selected by setting the RINGS switch on the base unit to:
• • • • • TS - Toll Saver
• • • • • 6 - Four rings
• • • • • 2 - Two rings
Toll Saver lets you avoid unnecessary toll charges when calling long distance to remotely
retrieve your messages.
The unit can be set to answer the first call on the 6th ring, and all subsequent calls on the
2nd ring by setting the RINGS switch on the Toll Saver (TS) position.
If your unitfails to answer on the 2nd ring, then you know that you do not have any new
Incoming Message(s) (ICM). You can hang up before the unit answers and save the cost of
the call.

default OGM (factory preset) which is active when there is no OGM present.

time is 30 seconds.
