Setting the Number of Rings

Set 2/4/7/TS located on the right side of the system to 2, 4, 7 to set how long the system waits before it answers a call (2 rings, 4 rings, 7 rings).

Using Toll Saver

To help you avoid unnecessary long distance charges, you can set 2/4/7/TS to TS (Toll Sav- er). Once you select TS, if there are new messages, the system answers on the sec- ond ring. If there are no new messages, the system answers on the fourth ring. This fea- ture gives you time to hang up after the third ring when you are checking messages from a long-distance location.
