What is priority call code?

If a caller enters your priority call code while your announce- ment is playing, you’ll be alerted with a spe- cial tone so you can answer the call. If the call is not answered, you will hear "the machine will now hang up."

The code is pre-set to 999. See steps at right to change it.
