NOTE: After the answering system plays the remote menu, it will wait 10 seconds for a command. If a command is not entered, the unit disconnects. The unit only allows two attempts at accessing the security code. If the second attempt is incorrect, the unit will end the call.

General Product Care

To keep your answering system working and looking good, follow these guidelines:

Avoid putting it near heating appliances and devices that generate electrical noise (for example, motors or fluorescent lamps).

DO NOT expose to direct sunlight or moisture.

Avoid dropping answering system and/or other rough treatment.

Clean with a soft cloth.

Never use a strong cleaning agent or abrasive powder because this will damage the finish.

Retain the original packaging in case you need to ship it at a later date.
