Initial settings
We recommend you program your telephone system before use.
The following are a few examples of common features to set before using the
telephone. Refer to the Handset settings and Answering system settings in
the Abridged user’s manual or the online Complete user’s manual for detailed
instructions on setting all telephone features.
Set date/time
Set the date/time before using the answering system.
1. MENU -> q or p -> Set date/time -> SELECT.
2. Enter the month, day and year using the dialing keys -> SELECT.
3. Enter the hour and minute using the dialing keys.
4. q or p to choose AM or PM -> SELECT.
Record your own announcement
Your outgoing announcement plays when calls are answered by the answering
system. You can use the preset announcement to answer calls, or replace it
with your own recorded announcement.
1. MENU -> q or p -> Answering sys -> SELECT.
2. SELECT to select Announcement.
3. SELECT to select Record annc.
4. Facing the handset, record your announcement and press 5 to end recording.
Number of rings
You can set the answering system to answer an incoming call after two, three,
four, five or six rings, or toll saver. If you choose toll saver, the answering
system answers a call after two rings if you have new messages, or after four
rings when there are no new messages. This enables you to check for new
messages and avoid paying unnecessary long distance charges if you are
calling from out of your local area.
If you want the built-in answering system instead of the voicemail to answer a
call, you should set the answering system to answer a call at least two rings
before the voicemail is set to answer. Contact your telephone service provider
for information on your voicemail settings.
1. MENU -> q or p -> Answering sys -> SELECT.
