Setting the Ring Time
The ring time setting allows you to set the number of rings the caller hears before your answering machine plays the outgoing message. You can set the ring time to answer after two, four, or six rings. If you select Toll Saver [ 
], the answering machine 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.
To set the ring time, perform the following steps:
1)With the phone in standby, press [menu/clock] three times. You hear "Ring time" and the current ring time ([ 
], [ 
], [ 
], [ 
] Toll saver), and it is displayed on the base. Then you hear the guidance for setting the ring time.
2)Press [volume/select/
] or [volume/select/
] until the desired ring time appears.
3)Press [set] to select the new ring time. You hear a confirmation tone, then the announcement "Ring time" followed by the new ring time. After a few seconds, the system announces "To set record time, press menu again."
Selecting the Message Record Time
You have three record time options: one minute, four minutes, and "Announce only."
"Announce only" answers the call with the preset greeting or your personal greeting but prevents the caller from leaving a message.
To set the record time, perform the following steps:
1)With the phone in standby, press [menu/clock] four times. You hear "Record time" and the current recording time ([ 
] 1 minute, [ 
] 4 minutes, [ 
] Announce only, No recording), and it is displayed on the base. Then you hear the guidance for setting the record time.
