Answering system operation

Answering system setup

The answering system uses voice prompts to guide you through the set up of the answering system. Press /PLAY/STOP at any time to save and exit the setup menu.

Set number of rings

This feature allows you to select the number of rings before the answering system answers. You can choose from two, four or six rings or toll saver. With toll saver active, the answering system answers after two rings when there are new messages, and after four rings when there are no new messages. To set the number of rings:

Press SETUP in idle mode, and the system announces the current number of rings setting.

Press /SKIP or /REPEAT until the system announces the desired setting, then press SETUP to save the setting and go to the next setting or press /PLAY/STOP to save and return to idle mode.

Set base ringer

This feature allows you to select from three telephone base ringer volume levels: high, low or off. To set the base ringer:

Press SETUP in idle mode until the system announces the base ringer setting.

Press /SKIP or /REPEAT until the system announces the desired base ringer volume level, then press SETUP to save the setting and go to the next setting or press /PLAY/STOP to save and return to idle mode.

When calling remotely to check for messages, selecting toll saver in number of rings setting will help to save long distance charges because the answering system will answer the incoming call after two rings when there are new messages.
