Remote access
Your phone lets you check your
messages, or otherwise operate your
answering machine, by calling the
answering machine when you are away
from home and then dialling a 4-digit
remote access PIN from a tone-dialling
phone. The 4-digit remote access PIN
code is used to prevent other people
from unauthorised access of your
answering machine.
Make sure that Remote Access is turned
on (see
Turn on/off remote access
section) and then you can ring your
phone from another tone-dialling
phone to switch the answering machine
on or off, and/or listen to your messages
remotely.
Access your answering machine
remotely:
1. Place a call from a tone-dialling
phone to your phone.
2. When the answering machine
answers the call and starts playing
the outgoing message, press the
*
key. The outgoing message will stop
playing.
3. Enter the 4-digit Remote Access PIN
(default PIN is
0000
). You will hear a
single confirmation beep if the PIN
is accepted, and you then need to
press
5
to start playing any messages.
NOTES
• The
*
must be entered while the
outgoing message is still playing,
and the 4-digit PIN should follow
without any delays.
• If the 4-digit Remote Access PIN is
entered incorrectly you will hear
three error beeps, and you can try
again, but if it happens three times
consecutively, the line will be released
automatically.
