CHANGING ASTORED NUMBER
Use the same procedure for Storing a Number in Memory except replace the old
phone number with a new one.
DIALING ASTORED NUMBER
1. Make sure the phone is ON.
2. Press memory.
3. Press the number for that memory location.
CHAIN DIALING FROM MEMORY
Use this feature to make calls which require a sequence of numbers, for
instance if you use a calling card for a frequently called long distance number.
The following example shows how you can use chain dialing to make a call
through a long distance service:
The Number For Memory Location
Long di tance acce number 7
Authorization code 8
Frequently called long di tance number 9
1. Make sure the phone is ON.
2. Press memory and then press 7.
3. When you hear the access tone, press memory and then press 8.
4. At the next access tone, press memory and then 9.
TIP: Don’t be in too big of a hurry. Wait for the access tones before pressing the next memory
button, or your call might not go through.
TEMPORARY TONE
This feature enables pulse (rotary) service phone users to access touch-tone
services offered by banks, credit card companies, etc. Press the * tone button to
temporarily make the phone touch-tone compatible. To get information about
your bank account, for example, you would:
1. Call the bank’s information line.
2. Press the * tone key, when your call is answered.
3. Follow the voice menu instructions to get the information. When you hang up,
the phone goes back to pulse (rotary) service.
REMOTE ACCESS
This section explains two types of remote access: using the handset to access
the answering system and accessing the answering machine system from
another phone in another location.
The handset contains integrated buttons that enable you access the answering
system with the handset.
You can also access your answering system from any phone that is tone-dial
compatible by entering a 3-digit security code after you hear the outgoing
announcement. A voice menu system guides you through all of the procedures.
USING THE HANDSET
Press the answerer button to access the answering system from the cordless
handset.
After you access the answering system, use the marked handset keys just as if
you were pressing the corresponding buttons on the base (see "Answering
System Operation" for details on functions). To make it easy for you, the functions
are listed on the handset above each number. For example, to play messages:
1. Press the answerer button.
2. Press 2 (play/stop ).
3. When you are finished listening to your messages, press answerer again.
SCREENING CALLS FROM THE HANDSET
Use the handset to screen calls.
When the phone rings:
1. Press the answerer button to gain access to the answering system.
2. Listen to the caller leaving a message.
3. Press the TALK button to talk to the person or press answerer to stop
screening the call.
MEMORY FULL
When the memory is full, the system answers after 10 rings, and announces,
“Memory full.” If you don't enter the security code within 10 seconds after the
announcement, the phone beeps and hangs up.
You need to erase some of the messages in order for the system to record new
incoming messages.
NOTE: The unit also answers after the 10th ring if it is turned off. To access the answering system from
another location, enter your 3-digit security code after you hear the beep.
ACCESSING THE ANSWERING SYSTEM FROM ANOTHER PHONE
You can access your answering system from a touch-tone phone by entering
your 3-digit security code after you hear the outgoing announcement.
1. Dial the phone number for the answering system.
2. Enter the security code after you hear the tone.
3. Follow the voice menu to use the answering system’s remote functions.
The remote feature enables you to perform the following functions:
To Pre thi Button
Review me age 1
Play back me age 2
Stop me age playback 2
Era e me age 0 (during me age playback)
Skip me age 3
Turn On/Off an wering y tem 4
Review voice menu option 7
TIP: You can bypass the outgoing announcement by pressing any numbered key on the keypad while
the announcement is playing. Then, you can enter your security code to access the answering system.
CHANGING THE SECURITY CODE
The default security code for accessing the answerer from another location is
1 2 3. You must use the handset to change the security code. With the phone
off, follow these steps:
1. Press answerer (the ANS. indicator comes on).
2. Press * tone.
3. Enter 3 numbers to be used as the new security code.
4. Press * tone again.
CHANGING THE BATTERY
Make sure the telephone is OFF before you replace battery.
1. Remove the battery compartment door.
2. Disconnect the battery plug attached to the battery pack and remove the
battery pack from the handset battery compartment.
3. Insert the new battery pack and connect the cord to the jack inside the
handset.
4. Put the battery compartment door back on.
5. Place handset in the base to charge.
Allow the handset battery to properly charge (for 12 hours) prior to first use or
when you install a new battery pack. If you don’t properly charge the phone,
battery performance will be compromised.
CAUTION: To reduce the risk of fire or personal injury, use only the battery listed in the
instruction book.
BATTERY SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
• Do not burn, disassemble, mutilate, or puncture. Like other
batteries of this type, toxic materials could be released
which can cause injury.
• To reduce the risk of fire or personal injury, use only the
battery listed in the User’s Guide.
• Keep batteries out of the reach of children.
• Remove batteries if storing over 30 days.
