• The machine has been set at the factory for a Quiet Detect Time of 5 seconds, which gives the best
performance for most answering machines. However, you may have to adjust the Quiet Detect Time depending
on your answering machine’s disconnect time, the time before the machine disconnects the line after a period
of silence. If your machine has a short disconnect time, you may have to shorten the Quiet Detect Time.
However, if the machine is interrupting callers in the middle of messages, you should set a longer Quiet Detect
Time.

However, if the machine is interrupting callers in the middle of messages, you should set a longer Quiet Detect

• If there is a pause at the end of your answering machine message, make sure that the Quiet Detect Time is
longer than this pause.
• Setting Quiet Detect Time to 00 turns the function off. However, the machine will not be able to receive faxes
sent using manual dialing (picking up the receiver, dialing the number, and pressing the [START] key (
)
when the fax tone is heard).
• If your answering machine is set to answer calls after more rings than the machine's number of rings setting,
the machine will always answer first and thereby prevent callers from leaving messages in the answering
machine.
