Tip
Economy mode can save you the cost
of a long-distance call when you
check your messages remotely. If
there are new messages in your
answering machine, the outgoing
message will start playing after 3
rings. If there are no new messages,
the outgoing message will be played
after 5 rings. Hence, if you want to
check if you have any messages
without incurring call charges, you
can hang up the call after the 4th ring.
10.6.2 Remote Control Access
If you are far away from home and
want to check the messages on your
answering machine, you can make use
of the remote access feature to check
your messages using another phone.
Once you dial your home number
from any other phone and enter the
remote access code*, you will be able
to obtain the messages on your
answering machine. The keypad on the
phone you use to dial acts like the
functions on your answering machine
where you can play or delete
messages, turn your answering
machine on or off, etc.
Note
This feature is deactivated by default.
* Remote access code (which is the
same as your master PIN code)
prevents any unauthorised remote
access of your answering machine.
See chapter 10.6.2.2 for more
information.
