You can change the number of times the

phone rings before the unit answers calls.

You can select 2 to 6 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

30), 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 voice mail service subscribers

Please note the following:

– To receive messages correctly with your

voice mail service, we recommend that

you do not use the unit's answering

system. Make sure that the answering

system is turned off (page 27).

– If you would rather use the unit's

answering system than the voice mail

service provided by your service

provider/telephone company, ask your

service provider/telephone company to

deactivate your voice mail service.

If your service provider/telephone

company cannot do this, set this unit's

"Number of Rings" setting so that this

unit's answering system answers calls

before your service provider/telephone

How do I change the number of rings before voicemail picks up?

Dial the service code. The code should be entered in this format: **61*voicemailphonenumber**seconds# . Replace "voicemailphonenumber" with the phone number you wrote down in the previous step, and "seconds" with 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, or 30 to indicate how many seconds should pass before the call is sent to voicemail.
