Number of rings before the unit answers a call

You can change the number of times the phone rings “Number of Rings” before the unit answers a call. You can select 2 to 9 rings, or “Auto”.

The default setting is “5 Rings”.

“Auto”: The unit’s answering system answers at the end of the 2nd ring when new messages have been recorded, or at the end of the 5th ring when there are no new messages. If you call your phone from outside to listen to new messages (page 36), you 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 service provider voice mail subscribers

To receive voice mail and use the answering system properly, please note the following:

R“Voice mail” is a service provided by your service provider/telephone company (page 38). You will need to first subscribe or activate this service through your service provider/telephone company. Contact your service provider/telephone company on how to operate this service and how you will be notified that you have messages on your voice mail.

To use this service, you will be required to leave your answering machine off on your unit.

This will allow the voice mail to receive any messages.

RTo use the unit’s answering machine rather than the voice mail service provided by your service provider/telephone company, please contact your service provider/ telephone company to have it removed or deactivated permanently or temporarily.

Alternatively you can leave this service connected and change the “Number of Rings” to a shorter duration on your unit so your unit’s answering machine can pick up the call prior to the voice mail provided by your service provider/telephone company.

Caller’s recording time

You can change the maximum message recording time allowed for each caller. The default setting is “3 Minutes”.

Additionally, with a backlit keypad, dialing numbers in dim environments is simple and straightforward.

Advanced caller identification is another critical feature of the KT-TG7861AL. The device can display caller information on the screen, allowing users to quickly identify who is calling before answering. This eliminates unwanted interruptions from telemarketers and spam callers.

The phone system is designed with user comfort in mind. It features ergonomically designed handsets that are lightweight and easy to hold, making long conversations enjoyable.
