A remote code must be entered when

from listening to your messages remotely. 
Store any 2-digit number (00–99). The 
default setting is “11”.

You can select “2”, “3”, “4” (default), “5”,

Toll saver”: The unit answers on the 
2nd ring when new messages have been 
recorded, and on the 4th ring when there 
are no new messages. If you call your 
phone from outside to listen to new 
messages (page 52), you will know that 
there are no messages when the phone 
rings for the 3rd time. You can then hang 
up without being charged for the call.
