9.6.3 Switching on the answering machine remotely
Imagine that you have left your office or house and have forgotten to switch on your
answering machine.
By means of the remote access facility, you have the option of switching on the
answering machine from another telephone.
1. Call your number. The call will be automatically accepted after 10 rings
even if the answering machine is switched off and you will hear your
greeting message
2. Replace the receiver.
9.6.4 Toll-free remote pre-access facility
Using the toll-free remote pre-access facility, you can find out whether there are any
messages on your answering machine without incurring any charges.
To do this, set the "Delaying acceptance of calls" function to the "ECO" setting. For
more information see Chapter 9.2.2.
If you now call your answering machine when you are away, the answering machine
will answer as follows:
A. If your call is answered after 2 rings, there will be messages on your answering
machine.
B. If no messages have been recorded, your call will not be answered after 2
rings. Put the receiver down immediately as your call will now only be
answered after the fourth ring. In this way, you can save call charges.
9.7 Forwarding calls directly to the answering machine
9.7.1 Blocking calls and forwarding calls directly to the answering
machine
Incoming calls can also be forwarded directly to the answering machine.
The answering machine must be switched on.
