Changing the number of rings
You can change the number of times the
phone rings before the unit answers calls.
You can select 2 to 7 rings, or “Auto”.
“Auto”: The unit answers after 2 rings when
new messages have been recorded, and
after 5 rings when there are no new
messages. If you call your phone from
outside to listen to new messages (page
34), you will know that there are no new
messages when the phone rings for the 3rd
time. You can then hang up without being
charged for the call.

For Telstra Homeline service subscribers
To receive Voice Mail and use answering
system properly, please note the following:
L “Voice Mail” is a service provided by your
Service Provider. You will need to first
subscribe or activate this service through
your Service Provider. Consult your
Service Provider on how to operate this
service and how you will be notified that
you have messages on your Voice Mail.
To use this service you will be required to
leave your answering machine off on your
unit.
This will allow the Voice Mail to receive
any messages.
This unit does not have a visual indicator
to indicate if there are new messages in
your Voice Mail service. Your Service
Provider may use a “Stutter” dial tone to
indicate that you have Voice Mail left.
L To use the unit’s answering machine
rather than the Voice Mail service
provided by your Service Provider, please
consult your Service Provider to have it
removed or deactivated permanently or
temporarily.
Alternatively you can leave this service
connected and change the “Ring
count” to a shorter duration on your unit
so your unit’s answering machine can pick
up the call prior to the Voice Mail provided
by your Service Provider.
Note:
L Provider Voice Mail can capture
messages that can be missed while the
customer is on the Internet.
Selecting the caller’s recording
time
You can change the maximum message
recording time allotted to each caller, or set
the unit to greet callers but not record
messages.
