REMOTE OPERATION
USING THE TOLL-SAVER
When you call the TAD with RING
TIME set to TS (toll-saver), it answers
after about two rings if you have new
messages (ones you have not listened
to). If there are no new messages, the
TAD waits for about five rings before it
answers. This gives you time to hang
up before the TAD answers so you
can avoid any long-distance charges.
ACCESSING THE TAD BY
REMOTE
While you are away from the phone’s
base, you can use a touch-tone phone,
or a pulse (rotary) phone with a pocket
tone dialer, to enter your PIN and do
any of the following:
• Set the TAD to answer calls
• Listen to your messages
• Record a new announcement
• Record a memo
• Erase messages
• Turn the TAD off
Note: You cannot access the TAD
from another telephone on the same
line as your TAD-1016.
1. Dial your phone number and wait
for the TAD to answer.
If the TAD is not set to answer
calls, let the phone ring 10 times.
The TAD automatically turns itself
on to answer your call then turns
off when you hang up (unless you
set the TAD to answer calls).
2. When the outgoing message
begins, press then enter your
2-digit PIN within 2 seconds.
The message stops, and the TAD
announces “You have XX new
message(s)” or “You have no
messages” then plays a series of
voice prompts to guide you
through remote operation.
3. Press , then, within 2 seconds,
press the number key for the com-
mand you want.

sage.

(during playback).

sage (during playback).

sages, memos, or the

ment; end recording of
