NOTES:

1.If you do not enter a valid remote access code, the answering system answers the call as usual and all the voice and digits entered will be recorded as messages stored in your general mailbox.

2.If you do not enter any remote access code, the answering system announces “Thank you for calling,” and the call is terminated.

3.When there is no new message or all the new messages are played during remote access, you hear a help menu listing all features and commands. If there is no command after help menu is played three times, the call ends automatically.
