Uniden DECT4086-6 manual Using the System While Youre Away from Home, Programming a security code

Using the System While You're Away from Home

You can also operate your answering system from any touch-tone phone. Before you can use this feature, you have to program a security code.

Programming a security code

1.With the phone in standby, open the menu and select Ans. Setup.

2.When the phone prompts you to select a line, press Line1 or Line2, then select Security Code.

3.Use the number keypad to enter a two-digit security code (01 to 99). Press Ok when you’re finished.

Remember to make a note of your new security code!

Dialing in to your system

1.Call your telephone number and wait for the system to answer. (If your answering system is off, it will answer after about ten rings and sound a series of beeps instead of your greeting.)

2.During the greeting (or beeps), press 0 and immediately enter your security code. (You have 3 tries to enter you security code: if you enter it wrong 3 times, the system hangs up and returns to standby.)

3.The system announces the current time, the number of messages stored in memory, and a help prompt. Then it starts beeping intermittently to let you know it's waiting for your command.

4.When you hear the intermittent beeping, enter a command from the chart to the right.

If you don't press any keys for 15 seconds, the phone will hang up and return to standby.
