The remote access code is pre- set to 500, but you can change it to any three-digit number from 500 to 999. (Do not use the same code as the priority calling code, see “Changing the Priority Calling Code” on Page 21).

PRIORITY CALLING CODE

The priority calling code is preset to 999, but you can change it to any three-digit number from 500 to 999. (Do not use the same code as the remote access code.) Give select callers the priority calling code and instructions on how to use it (see “Using the Prior- ity Calling Code” on Page 24).
