3.Repeatedly press or hold down SKIP/; or :/REPEAT to change the number.

4.Press SET to store the setting. The system announces the newly set code.

5.Press PLAY/STOP.

To check your code at any time, press MENU three times. The code appears in the message counter window, and the system announces it.

Using the Toll-Saver

If the ring time is set to jI (toll-saver) (see “Setting the Number of Rings” on Page 15), the system answers after two rings if you have new messages (ones you have not listened to). If there are no new messages, the system answers after four rings so you can hang up before the system answers and avoid unnecessary long-distance charges. If the system's message memory is full, the system answers after about 10 rings regardless of the ring time setting.

USING REMOTE

COMMANDS

Follow these steps to operate the answering system from a remote location.

Note: If you wait more than 15 seconds between each keypress, the system beeps and hangs up.

1.Dial your phone number and wait for the system to answer. If the system is not set to answer calls, it will answer after about 10 rings and beep.

2.When the outgoing message begins (or the system beeps), press #, then enter your security code within 2 seconds.

If the code is correct, the system announces the number of new and old messages, then “To play incoming

message, press pound two. For help, press pound zero.”

If the system does not respond, try entering your code again. If you enter an incorrect code three times, the system beeps and hangs up.

3.While the system is beeping, press # and (within 2 seconds) the number for the remote command you want.
