This is generally something set by the carrier, so I'd check with them to see if it's an option.

Call your voicemail. Listen to the prompts. If you don't hear one for changing the time before pickup, use the one for additional functions.

Then set the time for 5 seconds per ring plus 2 seconds (to allow for the fact that the ring you hear and the ringback tone the caller hears aren't in sync).

The reason I can't tell you what number to press is that each carrier maintains its own voicemail server, and they change the menus from other carriers.
