About the Privacy Feature

The Privacy feature turns off all telephone ringers and lets TeleSMART answer
your calls. This can be useful if you do not wish to be disturbed at certain times. For
example, you may wish to turn Privacy on during dinner to avoid being interrupted
by phone calls.
When the Privacy feature is on, it remains on for 8 hours, or until you turn it off. It automatically
turns off after 8 hours.
Use the Message Menu to check for any messages that may have been left while Privacy was
turned on (message light will be on at the touchpad).

How to Override Privacy Mode

When you call in to the system, you can manually override Privacy mode if it is on:
1. Dial in to the system. When TeleSMART answers the call, the system announces
"privacy on" before the greeting to let you know it is turned on.
2. Press [0] during the greeting. You are then connected to the system and your
voice can be heard at the TeleSMART touchpads and auxiliary speaker.
3. Simply speak into the telephone mouthpiece and say "pick up the phone" or
something similar to get the attention of those at the premises. Remember, the
phone does not ring at the premises, so your voice is the only alert they have to
your call.
4.
You can also set the system to automatically override Privacy mode for calls
from a specific phone number. See the Caller ID Options paragraph for details.
