11.2 Answer Mode
The phone comes with two pre‐recorded announcements for the
respective answer modes: ANSWER ONLY and RECORD MSGS.
By default, the answer mode is RECORD MSGS, which allows a caller to
leave a message on the answering machine after hearing the
announcement. This can be changed to ANSWER ONLY mode, which
does not allow callers to leave any messages on the answering machine
after hearing the announcement.

11.4.1 Set the Ring Delay
You can select the number of rings before the answering machine
answers a call and starts playing the announcement.
You can set the delay from 2 to 7 RINGS or TOLL SAVER on the handset.
IMPORTANT: If your network voice messaging system (e.g. the 1571
service) is enabled, you must set your RING DELAY to less than 6 rings;
otherwise the network service will answer all your calls before the
answering machine of your telephone and prevent it from recording
any messages.

Note: If you select TOLL SAVER on the handset, the answering machine
will answer an incoming call on the fifth ring if you have no new
messages and on the third ring if you do.
When you call your answering machine to check messages, if it does
not answer on the third ring, then you can hang up immediately,
knowing that you have no new messages. This feature can save you the
cost of a long‐distance call when you check your messages remotely.
