Using the System While You’re Away from Home
You can dial in to your answering system from any touch-tone phone.
Before you can use this feature, you must program a security code.
Programming a Security Code
1. With the phone in standby, open the menu from any handset.
2. Select Ans. Setup, then select Security Code.
3. Use the number keypad to enter a two-digit security code (00 to 99).
Press MENU/SELECT when you’re finished.
Screening Your Calls
You can use the answering system for call screening. While the system
takes a message, you can listen on the base speaker (if you turn on
Call
Screen)
or from a handset. Only one handset can screen calls at a time.
If another handset tries to screen calls, it beeps and returns to standby.
