Using the Toll-Saver
If the ring time is set to
jI jI jI jI
(toll-saver) (see
“Setting the Number of Rings” on Page 15),
the system answers after two rings if you
have new messages (ones you have not
listened to). If there are no new messages,
the system answers after four rings so you
can hang up before the system answers and
avoid unnecessary long-distance charges. If
the system's message memory is full, the
system answers after about 10 rings
regardless of the ring time setting.
USING REMOTE
COMMANDS
Follow these steps to operate the answering
system from a remote location.
Note: If you wait more than 15 seconds
between each keypress, the system beeps
and hangs up.
1. Dial your phone number and wait for the
system to answer. If the system is not
set to answer calls, it will answer after
about 10 rings and beep.
2. When the outgoing message begins (or
the system beeps), press #, then enter
your security code within 2 seconds.
If the code is correct, the system
announces the number of new and old
messages, then “To play incoming
message, press pound two. For help,
press pound zero.”
If the system does not respond, try
entering your code again. If you enter an
incorrect code three times, the system
beeps and hangs up.

and (within 2 seconds) the number for
the remote command you want.
