cordless handset or from a remote touch tone telephone, even if you do
not know or remember the various command codes. Once you have
connected with the answering system, press 5. The system announces a
list of operations and the buttons you need to press. At the end of the list,
the system beeps twice to indicate it is ready to accept a command. You
