operating the answering system
remotely. This code prevents

your messages remotely. The default

Ring count

You can change the number of times
the phone rings before the unit answers
calls.
The default setting is “4”.
“Toll saver”: The unit answers on
the 2nd ring when new messages have
been recorded, and on the 4th ring
when there are no new messages. If
you call your phone from outside to
listen to new messages (page 32), you
will know that there are no new
messages when the phone rings for the
3rd time. You can then hang up without
being charged for the call.
