callers with the Priority Calling Code
(preset to 999), in order for them to use
this feature.

number from a touch tone phone.

play, your caller can enter the Priority
Calling Code.

pauses. This continues for up to 30
seconds, unless you answer the
phone. The beeps are audible on both
ends of the call.
4 If you do not answer, your caller can
enter a mailbox number (1, 2, 3, or 4),
and leave a message in a mailbox.

The Priority Calling Code is preset to 999.
You can use this code, or change it to

Message Window flashes F. Delete
messages to make room for new ones.
When memory is full, the system answers
calls after 10 rings, and sounds two beeps
instead of your announcement.
