"Auto": The unit's answering system
answers at the end of the 2nd ring when
new messages have been recorded, or
at the end of the 5th ring when there are
no new messages. If you call your phone
from outside to listen to new messages
(page 39), you 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 service provider voice mail
subscribers
To receive voice mail and use the
answering system properly, please note
the following:
L "Voice mail" is a service provided by
your service provider/telephone
company (page 42). You will need to
first subscribe or activate this service
through your service provider/
telephone company. Contact your
service provider/telephone company
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.
L To use the unit's answering machine
rather than the voice mail service
provided by your service provider/
telephone company, please contact
your service provider/telephone
company to have it removed or
deactivated permanently or
temporarily.
Alternatively you can leave this
service connected and change the
"Number of Rings" 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/telephone
company.
Caller's recording time
You can change the maximum message
recording time allowed for each caller.
The default setting is "3 Minutes".

asking callers to call again later.
– If you use your own message,
record the greeting-only message
asking callers to call again later
(page 37).
