Ring count
You can change the number of times the
phone rings before the unit answers calls.
You can select “2”, “3”, “4” (default), “5”,
“6”, “7”, or “Toll saver”.
“Toll saver”: The unit answers on the
2nd ring when new messages have been
recorded, and on the 4th ring when there
are no new messages. If you call your
phone from outside to listen to new
messages (page 46), you will know that
there are no 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.
LTo 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:
LProvider Voice Mail can capture
messages that can be missed while the
customer is on the Internet.
