# OF RINGS Set how many times the telephone rings before the
answering system picks up the call.
If you choose tS 2-4 (or tS 4-6), the answering
system answers after two (or four) rings when
there are new messages. When there are no new
messages, the answering system answers after four
(or six) rings. When you are retrieving messages from
a long distance call, it disconnects your call after
three (or five) rings to avoid long distance charges.
(These tS settings are also known as toll saver.)
Refer to To set the number of rings on page 44 for
details.
