Remote Operation
You can use many system features when you are away form your home. To protect your privacy, most
features can be used only after you enter a two-digit Remote Access code.
NOTE:
To enter your Remote Access code and use other remote features, you must call from a
touch tone telephone.
Remote Access Code
The Remote Access code is preset to 10. You can use the preset code or choose one of your own.
To display your code:
hold down CODE. The Remote Access code appears in the Message Window.
To change your code:
the Remote Access code can be changed from the present code to any number from
10 to 99.
1.
Hold down CODE. The Remote Access code appears in the Message Window.
2.
While holding down CODE, press REPEAT to decrease the code or press FWD to increase it.
3.
Release CODE when the desired code is displayed.
4.
To see the new code, hold down CODE. The new code appears in the Message Window.
NOTE:
If AC power fails and you have no battery installed (or the battery is low on power), the
Remote Access code returns to the factory setting of 10.
To use your code:
1.
Dial your telephone number from a touch tone telephone.
2.
Wait until the system answers, then use the buttons on the telephone to enter your Remote
Access code.
When the Remote Access code is entered correctly, the system announces the number of messages (“You
have X messages”) and then beeps twice, indicating that it is ready for a remote command.
NOTE:
To bypass the announcement, enter your Remote Access code as soon as the
announcement begins. If the announcement does not stop, enter your code again.
Playing Messages and Memos
When you call your system from another location, enter your Remote Access code. You may then listen to
your messages or enter a command for another feature.
After you finish using a feature, the system beeps twice to let you know you can enter another command.
To play all messages:
When you dial your number and enter your Remote Access code, the system waits 4 seconds, then begins
playing all messages automatically.
To begin playing your messages immediately, press and release 7 after the two-beep signal.
The system beeps once after each message and announces “End of messages” after playing the last
message.
To play new messages only:
To play only messages that were received since the last time you checked your messages, press and release
6 after the two-beep signal. If no new messages have been recorded, the system announces, “No new
messages.”
