Number of rings
When the answering system is turned on, it answers all incoming home calls
after the number of rings set. You can choose from 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 rings; or
toll saver. With toll saver selected, the answering system answers after 2
rings when you have new messages, and after four rings when you have no
new messages.
This enables you to check for new messages and avoid paying unnecessary
long distance charges if you are calling from out of your local area. The
default number of rings is four.
