TAD Operation

SELECTING THE NUMBER
OF RINGS

You can select how long the TAD waits to
answer a call. If you plan to check your mes-
sages by long distance, you can choose the
toll-saver setting. The TAD answers on the
first two rings if you have a new message. If
there are no new messages, the TAD an-
swers after four rings. This gives you time to
hang up before the TAD answers so you can
avoid unnecessary long-distance charges.
