Tip
Toll saver mode can save you the cost of a long-
distance call when you check your messages
remotely. If there are new messages in your
answering machine, the outgoing message will
start playing after 3 rings. If there are no new
messages, the outgoing message will be played
after 5 rings. Hence, if you want to check if you
have any messages without incurring call charges,
you can hang up the call after the 4th ring.
10.7.2 Remote Control Access
If you are far away from home and want to check
the messages on your answering machine, you can
make use of the remote access feature to check
your messages using another phone. Once you dial
your home number from any other phone and
enter the remote access code*, you will be able to
obtain the messages on your answering machine.
The keypad on the phone you use to dial acts like
the functions on your answering machine where
you can play or delete messages, turn your
answering machine on or off, etc.
Note
This feature is deactivated by default.
