Answering system operation
Activate the answering system
The ANS ON/OFF must be on (the button light will be on) in order for the machine to answer calls and record messages. If the button light is off then calls will not be answered.
To turn on/off the answering system, press ANS ON/OFF to choose between on and off.
Use the volume control button on the telephone base to adjust the volume at anytime during the setup procedure.
Set number of rings
This feature allows you to select how many times the telephone rings before the answering system answers. You can choose from two, four, six, eight rings or toll saver. When toll saver is activated, the answering system answers after two rings when there are new messages, and after six rings when there are no new messages.
•Press NO. OF RINGS when in idle mode and the system announces the current setting.
•The system announces “To change the setting, press number of rings again.”
•Press NO. OF RINGS repeatedly until the desired setting is announced. If you do not press the ANNC button for about two seconds, the setting will be saved and there is a confirmation beep.
Set telephone base date and time
The answering system announces the day and time the message was received before playing each message. Set the date and time before using the answering system so all messages are dated correctly. Setting of handset date and time will simultaneously update the telephone base date and time.
The system will announce “Please set the handset clock” before message playback if you do not set the date and time before using this system.
•When ANS ON/OFF is turned off, your telephone will ring 10 times before answering and prompting for the remote access code.
