Set number of rings
You can set the answering system to answer an incoming call
after two, three, four, five or six rings. You can also select toll
saver. If toll saver is selected, the answering system answers a
call after two rings when you have new messages, and after
four rings when there are no new messages. This feature allows
you to check for new messages and avoid paying long distance
charges when calling from out of your local area. By default,
the answering system answers an incoming call after four rings.
