Setting the Number of Rings

Use the slide switch on the back of the answering
machine to adjust how many times the phone will ring
before the answering machine picks up the call. You
can chose 3 rings, 5 rings, or “Toll Saver.”

Toll Saver sets the answering machine to pick up the
call after 3 rings when new messages are present, or
after 5 rings when there are no new messages.

Using this feature, if you call long distance to check
your messages and the phone does not pick up after
the third ring, you can hang up and avoid the toll
charge because no new messages are waiting.
