When you call your machine to retrieve
messages in remote operation, you will
know there are no new messages if the
unit does not answer by the third ring.
Hang up before the fourth ring to avoid an
unnecessary toll charge.

the back of the unit) controls the ringer
volumes for incoming calls on both lines. The
RINGER VOLUME SWITCH is factory preset to
"HI." Each line has a unique ringer sound to
allow you to differentiate the two lines.
