    Remote code
    A remote code must be entered when 
    operating the answering system remotely. 
    This code prevents unauthorized parties 
    from listening to your messages remotely. 
    Store any 2-digit number (00–99).
    1Press {MENU} (middle soft key).
    2Scroll to J, then press {SELECT}.
    3Scroll to “Remote code”, then press 
    {SELECT}.
    4Select the desired remote code by 
    entering a 2-digit number (00–99).
    5Press {SAVE}, then press {OFF}.
    Note:
    LTo confirm the remote code, repeat 
    steps 1 to 3. Press {OFF} when finished.
    Ring count
    You can change the number of times the 
    phone rings before the unit answers calls. 
    You can select 2 to 7 rings or “Toll
    saver”.
    “Toll saver”: The unit answers on the 
    2nd ring when new messages have been 
    recorded, and on the 4th ring when there 
    are no new messages. If you call your 
    phone from outside to listen to new 
    messages (page 50), you will know that 
    there are no messages when the phone 
    rings for the 3rd time. You can then hang 
    up without being charged for the call.
    1Press {MENU} (middle soft key).
    2Scroll to J, then press {SELECT}.
    3Scroll to “Ring count”, then press 
    {SELECT}.
    4Press {V} or {^} repeatedly to select 
    the desired setting.
    5Press {SAVE}, then press {OFF}.
    Note:
    LUsually the unit will announce the 
    caller’s name after the 2nd ring. If you 
    turn on the answering system, and set 
    the ring count to 2 rings, the unit will not 
    announce the caller’s name. If “Toll
    saver” is selected, and there is a new 
    message, the unit will not announce the 
    caller’s name.
    For Voice Mail service subscribers
    If you subscribe to a flat-rate bundle 
    service that includes Caller ID, Call 
    Waiting, Voice Mail, and unlimited local/
    regional/long distance calls, please note 
    the following:
    LTo use the Voice Mail service provided 
    by the telephone company rather than 
    the unit’s answering system, turn off the 
    answering system (page 46).
    This unit does not have an indicator to 
    indicate if there are new messages in 
    your mailbox service.
    LTo use this unit’s answering system 
    rather than the Voice Mail service 
    provided by your telephone company, 
    please contact your telephone company 
    to deactivate your Voice Mail service.
    If the telephone company cannot do this:
    – Set this unit’s “Ring count” setting 
    so that this unit’s answering system 
    answers calls before the telephone 
    company’s Voice Mail service tries to 
    answer your calls. It is necessary to 
    check the ring count required to 
    activate the Voice Mail service 
    provided by your telephone company 
    before changing this setting.
    – Change the ring count of the Voice 
    Mail service so that the answering 
    system can answer the call first. To do 
    so, consult your telephone company.
