Using the answering machine

Before using your answering machine for the first time you need to: set the time and date, and switch the answering machine on.

Your On-Air 1250 Classic comes with the pre-recorded outgoing message (OGM) “Hello, your call cannot be taken at the moment, so please leave your message after the tone”. You can use this outgoing message or record your own.

The base stations answering machine is shared by all handsets. There are two types of answering machine mode:

1Answer and record – Callers can leave you messages.

2 Answer only – Callers will hear your

outgoing message but cannot leave any

message.

To record your own outgoing message (OGM)

Before proceeding it is necessary to choose which answering machine mode you will be using. (Answer only or Answer and record). It is possible to record a message for both modes although only one mode can be on at a time.

Important

The pre-recorded outgoing message (OGM) will be deleted when you record your own outgoing message (OGM).

Each answering machine mode has its own outgoing message.

The answering machine has an incoming message capacity of approximately 6 minutes.
