\* 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.

8.7.2 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.
