Number of rings before the unit
answers a call
You can change the number of times the
phone rings “Number of Rings” before the
unit answers a call. You can select 2 to 9
rings, or “Auto”.
The default setting is “8 Rings”.
“Auto”: The unit’s answering system answers
at the end of the 5th ring when new messages
have been recorded, or at the end of the 8th
ring when there are no new messages. If you
call your phone from outside to listen to new
messages (page 38), you know that there are
no new messages when the phone rings for
the 6th time. You can then hang up without
being charged for the call.
