from listening to your messages remotely.

Ring count
You can change the number of times the 
phone rings before the unit answers calls.
The default setting is “4”.
“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 39), you will know that 
there are no new messages when the 
phone rings for the 3rd time. You can then 
hang up without being charged for the call.

For Voice Mail service subscribers
If you subscribe to a flat-rate service 
package 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 your telephone company rather than 
the unit’s answering system, turn off the 
answering system (page 36).
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 your telephone company cannot do 
this:
– Set this unit’s “Ring count” setting 
so that this unit’s answering system 
answers calls before your 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.
