ˆRemote Operation

While you are away from your home or office, you can use a touch-tone phone, or a pulse (rotary) phone with a pocket tone dialer (available through your local RadioShack store) to enter your PIN and do any of the following:

•set the phone to answer or not answer calls

•listen to your messages

•record a new outgoing message

•erase messages

•monitor the room where the phone is located

Notes:

•You cannot remotely operate the phone using its handset or another telephone on the same line as the phone.

•You can also listen to the message recorded on Line 2 by making a call to Line 1’s number (or vice versa).

USING THE TOLL-SAVER

If RING TIME is set to TS (toll-saver), (see “Setting the Number of Rings” on Page 15), the phone answers after three rings if you have new messages (ones you have not listened to). If there are no new messages, the phone answers after five rings. This gives you time to hang up before the phone answers so you can avoid unnecessary long-distance charges.

Note: Toll-saver works only on the line you called. If Line 1 has no new mes- sages, but Line 2 has one, the tele- phone answers after five rings when you call Line 1.

USING REMOTE

COMMANDS

Follow these steps to operate the phone from a remote location.

Note: If you wait more than 15 seconds between keypresses, the phone sounds a long beep and hangs up.

1.Dial your phone number and wait for the phone to answer.

2.If the phone is not set to answer calls, it answers after about 10 rings and sounds a series of beeps.

3.When the outgoing message begins (or the phone sounds a series of beeps), press #, then enter your PIN within 2 seconds.

If the PIN is correct, the phone announc- es the day and time, then it announces the number of new and old messages. The phone plays all new messages, then beeps about every two seconds to let you know it is ready to accept remote commands.

Notes:

•If the phone does not respond, try entering your PIN again. If you enter an incorrect PIN three times, the phone beeps and hangs up.
