recording a telephone call, you should start the recording process and then inform the caller that you

Priority Calling
If you do not want to be disturbed, your system will answer the phone for you. However, if there is a
particular call you would like to receive, inform the caller of Priority Calling.
When the caller enters the Priority Calling code from a touch-tone telephone, the system beeps loudly to
alert you to a priority call.
The Priority Calling code is set at 30 and cannot be changed.
To use Priority Calling, a caller should:
1.
Dial your telephone number.
2.
When the announcement begins to play, press and release 3 0.
3.
The system beeps 3 times, then pauses. This pattern is repeated until the telephone is picked up. The
beeps are audible to the caller as well as in the home.
If the phone is not answered within 30 seconds, the caller hears 2 beeps. The caller can then press and
release *, and leave a message after the beep.
When Memory is Full
The system can record approximately 9 minutes of messages (including the time of your announcement) or
a maximum of 50 messages. When memory is full or 50 messages have been recorded, an “F” flashes in the
Message Window. To make room for more messages, listen to your messages and delete some or all of
them.
When memory is full, the system will answer calls after 10 rings and present 2 beeps instead of your
announcement.
Away from Home Operation
Your Remote Access Code
You can use many features of the Answering System 1720 when you are away from home. To protect your
privacy, most features can be used only after you enter a Remote Access code.
NOTE: To enter your Remote Access code and use other remote features, you must call from a touch
tone telephone.
The Remote Access code is preset to 10. This number is printed on the bottom of this unit (on the battery
door). You can use the preset code or you can choose one of your own.
You can change this code by calling from a remote location. However, you cannot change this code at
home.
NOTE: If AC power fails and there is no battery installed, or the battery is low on power, the
Remote Access code returns to the factory setting of 10.
Changing Your Remote Access Code
1.
Dial your telephone number
from a touch-tone telephone.
