What is Time Saver?
Time Saver can save you the cost of a
call when you want to ring in from
another phone to find out if you have
new messages (see 'Remote access',
page 36).
If you have new messages, your
answering machine answers after 2
rings. If you do not have new
messages, it answers after 6 rings. This
gives you a chance to hang up before
the line is connected.
To cancel and return to standby at any
time, press .

Ring delay and Security PIN

Ring delay is the number of times your BT Freelance XC1500
rings before the answering machine picks up calls and starts
playing the outgoing message to callers. You can choose
between 2–9 rings, or Time Saver. The default setting is
6 rings.
Your 3-digit PIN lets you access your answering machine
remotely from another phone. For security reasons, it is
recommended that you change the PIN from the original
setting of 000.
