48Answering machine

You can operate your BT Freestyle 350 answering machine from:

•the base

•the handset

•remotely from any external Touchtone™ telephone. The default setting for the answering machine is On.

Until you change your outgoing message, your callers will be greeted with the pre-recorded message, “Hello, your call cannot be taken at the moment, so please leave your message after the tone”.

Date and time

An announcement of date and time of recording will be added automatically to each message and memo.

When playing back messages at the handset, the date and time of the message is displayed on the screen.

If you subscribe to your network provider’s Caller Display service, the date and time are set automatically when your BT Freestyle 350 receives its first call, but you may also need to set the year using a handset, see page 47.

If you experience any problems, please call the Helpline on 0870 240 3962 or email bt.helpdesk@vtecheurope.com
