RINGS TO ANSWER

NOTE: This setting may only be made with the base.

You may set the number of times you want the phone to ring before the answering system answers a call.

1.Press the program/flash button until RING TO ANSWER shows in the display. “5” is the default setting.

2.Use the caller ID (rev or skip) button to scroll to 3, 5 or TOLL.

NOTE: TOLL (Toll Saver) can save you the cost of a toll call when accessing your messages from another phone. If you have new messages, the unit answers after the 3rd ring. If you have no new messages, the unit answers after the 5th ring. You can hang up after the 3rd or 4th ring and save the pay telephone or long distance charge.

3.Press program/flash again to store your selection. You will hear a confirmation tone.

SECURITY CODE

2.Use the touch-tone pad to enter your new 3-digit security code. For example, press the 6, 2, and 8 number keys for security code 628. The default security code is “123”.

NOTE: If you make a mistake, use the delete button to backspace and erase the wrong digit.
