Changing the number of rings
You can change the number of times the phone rings before the unit answers calls. “Auto”: The unit answers after 2 or 3 rings when new messages have been recorded, and after 5 or 6 rings when there are no new messages. If you call your phone from outside to listen to new messages (page 45), you will know that there are no messages when the phone rings for the 4th time. You can then hang up without being charged for the call.
