The free of charge pre−remote access function can be used to determine
whether messages have been left on your answering machine without
accruing any telephone charges.
To do this, set the Delay taking calls" function to toll−saver". Refer to
Chapter 17.5.3.
When you subsequently call the answering machine while underway, the
answering machine responds as follows:
S If your call is taken after 2 rings, there are new messages on
the answering machine.
S If no new messages have been recorded, the call is not taken
after 2 rings. Replace the receiver immediately because the
call will be taken after 4 rings. No telephone charges are
necessary because no connection has been made.
