Setting the ring time

The ring time setting allows you to set the number of rings the caller hears before your answering system plays the outgoing message. You can set the ring time to answer after two, four, or six rings. Setting “TS” (Toll Saver), the answering system picks up after two rings if you have new messages, and after four rings if there are none. This way, if you make a long distance call to check your messages, you can hang up after the second ring to avoid billing charges.

1)Press CLOCK/MENU three times.

The current ring time setting (“ ” 2, “ ” 4, “ ” 6, “ ” Toll saver) appears on the base and it is announced.

2)Press /SELECT or /SELECT until the desired ring time appears.

3)Press SET to select the new ring time.

A confirmation tone sounds, the system announces the new ring time.

Selecting the message record time

You have three record time options. The options “1 minute” or “4 minutes” set the duration for recording the incoming messages. “Announce only” answers the call with the preset greeting or your personal greeting but prevents the caller from leaving a message.

1)Press CLOCK/MENU four times.

The current recording time (“ ” 1 minute, “ ” 4 minutes, “ ” Announce only) appears on the base and it is announced.

2)Press /SELECT or /SELECT until the desired message record time appears.

3)Press SET to select the new recording time.

A confirmation tone sounds, the system announces the new record time.
