If this phone is set as an Auto Attendant, this set- ting determines how long the Auto Attendant will ring before picking up incoming calls. You may choose any number of rings, from 0 to 8 rings. If you choose “0”, the Auto Attendant will not ring at all. Many people prefer this setting, since it pro- vides for a quiet office.

Note: If you choose to set the Auto Attendant Pickup Delay to “0”, you must be sure to leave the Toll Saver feature set to OFF (see page 69).
