Decor 500 ~ 4th Edition ~ 15th July ’03 ~ 5096
Answer delay
Answer delay sets the number of times your Decor 500 will ring before the answering machine picks up your call and starts playing the outgoing message. The default setting is 6 rings.
You can change this setting to between 2 and 9 rings or time saver.
Time Saver
The time saver feature is useful if you are out and want to ring in and check if you have received any new messages.
If your answering machine is set to time saver you can check whether you have new messages or not before your answering machine actually answers your call. If you have new messages your answering machine will answer after 2 rings, if you do not have any new messages, it will not answer until 6 rings. This enables you to hang up before you are connected, saving you time and the cost of the call.
