Ring count

You can change the number of times the phone rings before the unit answers calls. The default setting is “4”.

“Toll saver”: The unit answers on the 2nd ring when new messages have been recorded, and on the 4th ring when there are no new messages. If you call your phone from outside to listen to new messages (page 39), you will know that there are no new messages when the phone rings for the 3rd time. You can then hang up without being charged for the call.

For Voice Mail service subscribers

If you subscribe to a flat-rate service package that includes Caller ID, Call Waiting, Voice Mail, and unlimited local/ regional/long distance calls, please note the following:

LTo use the Voice Mail service provided by your telephone company rather than the unit’s answering system, turn off the answering system (page 36).

This unit does not have an indicator to indicate if there are new messages in your mailbox service.

LTo use this unit’s answering system rather than the Voice Mail service provided by your telephone company, please contact your telephone company to deactivate your Voice Mail service. If your telephone company cannot do this:

–Set this unit’s “Ring count” setting so that this unit’s answering system answers calls before your telephone company’s Voice Mail service tries to answer your calls. It is necessary to check the ring count required to activate the Voice Mail service provided by your telephone company before changing this setting.

–Change the ring count of the Voice Mail service so that the answering system can answer the call first. To do so, consult your telephone company.
