ing machine accepts a call after 18 sec-
onds.
u If new messages are present, the answer-
ing machine accepts a call after 10 sec-

When operating remotely (
¢ page 53) you
can tell after approx. 15 seconds that there
are no new messages (otherwise the
answering machine would already have
accepted your call). There will be no call
charges if you hang up now.

You can configure your telephone so that
the first ring is suppressed on all calls
(
¢ page 46). This means that the time
selected for call acceptance predetermines
how long the caller must wait before the
answering machine answers the call.
