What is Time Saver?
When accessing your
messages remotely (
see
page 29
), if you have new
messages, your answering
machine answers after 2
rings. If you do not have
new messages, it answers
after 6 rings. This gives you
a chance to hang up before
the line is connected.
To check the answer
delay setting, in standby
mode press
and release
the
button.
