Switch Your Answering Machine On Remotely; To Check For Messages - BT Synergy 4500 User Manual

54 Answering machine
Time saver
When you ring in to access your
messages remotely, if your
answering machine is set to time
saver and you have new messages
it will answer after 2 rings, if you
do not have any new messages, it
will answer after 6 rings. This
means you can hang up after 3
rings knowing you have no new
messages, saving you time and the
cost of the call.
You cannot use this feature if you
have BT Answer 1571 or Call
Minder active as the call will be
intercepted before the 20 rings.
Your handset will automatically
return to standby if no button is
pressed for 8 seconds or more.
If you have any new messages they
will be played after you have
entered your security PIN code.
If you enter the incorrect PIN code
you will be allowed one further
attempt, if it is still incorrect you
will hear, "Thank you for calling",
and your BT Synergy 4500 will
hang up.
If no button is pressed for 8
seconds or more your BT Synergy
4500 will hang up.
