Specifying the number of rings before the answering machine 
starts
You can set when you want the answering machine to activate (after how many rings). 
The options are: 1 ring tone2 ring tone, ..., 9 ring tone. Instead of a set number of 
rings, you can also choose the cost saving setting Automatic 2/4 (factory default). In 
this setting the answering machine activates automatically:
◆ after 2 rings if there are new messages;
◆ after 4 rings if there are no new messages.
When operating remotely (page 70) by the third ring you will know that there are no 
new messages (otherwise the answering machine would have already activated). There 
will be no call charges if you hang up now. 
Precondition: You have selected an answering machine (page 61).
Activating/deactivating voice announcement of date and time
You can have the recording date and time (time stamp) announced when each 
message/memo is played back (activated when supplied).
Precondition: You have selected an answering machine (page 61).
