Tip
Toll saver mode can save you the cost of a
long-distance call when you check your
messages remotely. If there are new
messages in your answering machine, the
outgoing message will start playing after 3
rings. If there are no new messages, the
outgoing message will be played after 5 rings.
Hence, if you want to check if you have any
messages without incurring call charges, you
can hang up the call after the 4th ring.
8.7.2 Remote Control Access
If you are far away from home and want
to check the messages on your answering
machine, you can make use of the remote
access feature to check your messages
using another phone. Once you dial your
home number from any other phone and
enter the remote access code*, you will
be able to obtain the messages on your
answering machine. The keypad on the
phone you use to dial acts like the
functions on your answering machine
where you can play or delete messages,
turn your answering machine on or off,
etc.
Note
This feature is deactivated by default.
* Remote access code (which is the same
as your Master PIN code) prevents any
unauthorised remote access of your
answering machine.
