Guide to answering 
system settings
If the base unit is reset to its default settings 
(page 33), the following answering system-
related settings will be reset.
Changing the number of rings
You can change the number of times the 
phone rings before the unit answers calls. 
You can select 2 to 7 rings, or “Auto”.
“Auto”: The unit answers after 2 rings when 
new messages have been recorded, and 
after 5 rings when there are no new 
messages. If you call your phone from 
outside to listen to new messages (page 
48
), 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.

For voice mail service subscribers
To receive voice mail and use answering 
system properly, please note the following:
– To use the voice mail service provided by 
your service provider rather than this 
unit’s answering system, turn off the 
answering system (page 45).
– To use this unit’s answering system rather 
than the voice mail service provided by 
your service provider, please consult your 
service provider to deactivate your voice 
mail service.
If your service provider cannot do this, set 
this unit’s “Number of Rings” setting 
so that this unit’s answering system 
answers calls before the service 
provider’s voice mail service tries to 
answer your calls. It is necessary to check 
the number of rings required to activate 
the voice mail service provided by your 
service provider before changing this 
setting.
Selecting the caller’s recording 
time
You can change the maximum message 
recording time allotted to each caller, or set
