Setting a Personal Security Code (PIN)

To play your messages from a remote location, you need to enter a two-digit Personal Identification Number (PIN) code (01-99). To select a PIN, perform the following steps: Ô

1.Press clock/menu twice in standby mode.

“Security code” and the current PIN code is announced as it is displayed on the base.

Then the system announces the guidance for setting the PIN code.

2. Press SELECT/VOLUME/ or SELECT/VOLUME/ until the desired number appears.

3.Press set to select the PIN code. You hear a confirmation tone, then the announcement “Security code” and the new PIN code is announced. After a few seconds, the system announces “To set ring time, press menu again”.

Setting the Ring Time

The ring time setting allows you to set the number of rings the caller hears before your answering system plays the outgoing message. You can set the ring time to answer after two, four, or six rings. Set to (Toll Saver) so the answering system picks up after two rings if you have new messages, and after four rings if there are none. This way, if you make a long distance call to check your messages, you can hang up after the second ring to avoid billing charges.

1.Press clock/menu three times in standby mode.

You hear “Ring time” and the current ring time ([ ] 2, [ ] 4, [ ] 6, [] Toll saver), and it is displayed on the base. Then you hear the guidance for setting the ring time.

Ô NOTE Ô

The PIN code is set to “80” when you purchase your phone.
