Operation Manual

3.4 TOLL-FREE REMOTE PRE-ACCESS

Using the toll-free remote pre-access facility, you can

find out whether there are any messages on your an-

swering machine without incurring any charges.

Set the slide control to the “TS” position.

2 - TS

If you now call your 838G when you are away, the an-

swering machine answers as follows:

A. If your call is answered after 2 rings, there are mes-

sages on your 838G.

B. If no messages have been recorded, your call will not

be answered after 2 rings. Put the receiver down di-

rectly as your call will now only be answered after the

sixth ring. In this way, you can save call charges.

3.5 REMOTE ACCESS FACILITIES

1. Call your own telephone number and allow the greet-

ing message to run through to the end. Wait until

your answering machine is ready to record a mes-

sage.

2. After the signal tone, enter your personal authorisa-

tion code by pressing the appropriate numbers on

the number pad of the remote control or of a tel-

ephone. The numbers must be pressed for a mini-

mum of one second.

Two signal tones confirm that the right code has been

entered. Now select the required function by pressing

the appropriate combination of keys.
