Answering System
If your telephone service provider cannot do this:
–Set this unit’s “Ring count” setting so that this unit’s answering system answers calls before the Voice Mail service of your telephone service provider does. It is necessary to check the ring count required to activate the Voice Mail service provided by your telephone service provider before changing this setting.
–Change the ring count of the Voice Mail service so that the answering system can answer the call first. To do so, consult your telephone service provider.
