SELECTING THE NUMBER OF RINGS

You can select how long the TAD waits to answer a call. If you plan to check your mes- sages by long distance, you can choose the toll-saver setting. The TAD answers on the first two rings if you have a new message. If there are no new messages, the TAD an- swers after four rings. This gives you time to hang up before the TAD answers so you can avoid unnecessary long-distance charges.
