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

) With the phone in standby, open the menu from any handset.

2)Select Ans. Setup, then select Security Code.

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

Remember to make a note of your new security code!

Dialing in to your system

) 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.)

) 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.

) When you hear the intermittent beeping, enter a command from the

chart to the right.
