ANSWERING SYSTEM OPERATION
SETTING THE
ANSWERING SYSTEM
TO ANSWER CALLS
Rotate
VOLUME
toward
HI
until it
clicks. When the red light on the
PLAY
button stays on without the answering
system sounding a tone, the system is
ready to answer calls.
The answering system hangs up and
resets to answer the next call when:
• The caller hangs up.
• The maximum message length of
about 60 seconds is reached.
• There are more than 7 seconds of
silence.
The answering system can record up
to about 29 minutes of incoming mes-
sages on the supplied tape. If the tape
reaches the end while a caller is leav-
ing a message, the answering system
beeps twice and hangs up.
If the incoming message tape is full,
the answering system answers a call
after ten rings, plays back the outgo-
ing message, then waits 7 seconds for
the remote operation security code. If
the correct code is not entered, the
answering system beeps twice and
hangs up. See “Remote Control Oper-
ation” on Page 17.
To have the answering system not an-
swer calls, rotate
VOLUME
to
STOP
.
The red light turns off.
SETTING THE NUMBER
OF RINGS
You can select the number of rings the
answering system waits before it an-
swers calls. Set
1.4.9.TOLL SAVER
to
the desired position.
The system answers calls in 1, 4, or 9
rings, or if you set the switch to
TOLL
SAVER
(the last position), the answer-
ing system answers in four rings if no
messages are saved or in two rings if
you have messages. This feature can
save you long-distance charges be-
cause, if there are no new messages,
you can hang up before the answering
system answers.
Note:
If you subscribe to Caller ID, do
not set
1.4.9.TOLL SAVER
to
1
(the first
position), because Caller ID informa-
tion is sent between the first and sec-
ond rings.
