The free of charge pre−remote access function can be used to determine
whether new messages have been left on your answering machine
without accruing any telephone charges.
To do this, set the Delay taking calls" function to toll−saver". Refer to
Chapter 10.4.
When you subsequently call the answering machine while underway, the
answering machine responds as follows:
S
If your call is taken after 2 rings, there are new messages on
the answering machine.
S
If no new messages have been recorded, the call is not taken
after 2 rings. Replace the receiver immediately because the
call will be taken after 4 rings. No telephone charges are
necessary because no connection has been made.
