Using your Freestyle 1200 answering machine

Answer delay

You can adjust the number of times your Freestyle 1200 will ring before the answering machine takes the call. The original setting is for 6 rings. You can change this to any number of rings between 2 and 9 or to TIME SAVER.

Time Saver is used to save you time and the cost of a phone call when ringing your machine from another phone to pick up your messages. Your Freestyle 1200 answers after 2 rings if you have new messages or after 6 rings if you don’t. So you can choose to hang up if you hear more than 2 rings.

To set the answer delay

Press and hold down the ♣♣ button. The machine announces the current setting and then starts giving you the alternative settings.

Release the ♣♣ button when the setting you want is announced. the machine then confirms the setting. For example, if you select Time Saver, you will hear: “Answer delay: Time Saver”, or for 6 rings, “Calls will be answered after 6 rings.”
