Set Number of Rings
• Your gz 2456 can answer calls after 2 rings, 4 rings, 6 rings, or Toll Saver mode. In Toll
Saver mode, your gz 2456 will answer calls after 2 rings only if there are new, unplayed
messages in its memory. Otherwise, it will answer after 4 rings. This feature helps you
avoid long distance charges when checking for messages from a remote location.
Therefore, using Toll Saver, if you call your gz 2456, and it doesn’t pick up by the third
ring, hang up. There aren’t any new messages for you at this time.
To Set the Number of Rings
• Press MENU until you hear “Set number of rings”.
• Press SELECT until you hear the desired setting
( 2,4,6, Toll Saver).
• Press TIME/SET to confirm your choice. The
voice prompt will say:“ Number of rings selected
is 2 (4,6, or Toll Saver)”.
• Press MENU to advance to the next
programming function, or press PLAY/STOP to
exit programming mode.
