REMOTE ACCESS
You can access your answering system from any touch-tone phone by
entering your 3-digit security code (the default security code is 123, but
you can change it.) Be aware that remote functions do not work with rotary
or push-button, pulse-dialing phones. You can cut out the wallet-size
remote card on page 37 so you will have the touch-tone commands when
you're picking up messages from another location.
TO ACCESS YOUR ANSWERING SYSTEM
1. Call your telephone number.
2.After you hear the beep that follows the greeting, enter your 3-digit
security code. To bypass the greeting, you can enter your 3-digit security
code any time while the greeting is playing.
3.The unit plays the remote menu after the correct security code has been
entered. Menu selections can be made while the menu is playing.
NOTE: The unit answers on the 10th ring if the unit is turned off or the memory is full.
To access the answering system, enter the 3-digit security code after the beeps. If
memory is full, playback your messages and erase some of them to restore memory. If
the answering system is off, press 2 to turn it on.
NOTE: After the unit plays the remote menu, it will wait 10 seconds for a command. If a
command is not entered, the unit disconnects.
