Using your Freestyle 1200 answering machine

You can operate your Freestyle 1200 answering machine from the handset the base unit or from another telephone.

Your Freestyle 1200 can digitally record up to 14 minutes of messages, with each incoming message lasting a maximum of 3 minutes. Your Freestyle 1200 gives you two message mailboxes so that you can separate your incoming messages. This is basically the equivalent of three answer machines in one unit, where callers are prompted to select the relevant mailbox in which to leave their message.

Using the standard setting

Your Freestyle 1200 has a preset outgoing message that callers will hear. You can use this preset message or record your own message for a more personal greeting; see page 20.

The pre-set message is “Hello, your call cannot be taken at the moment so please leave your message after the tone.”

Using the message mailboxes

Your Freestyle 1200 has two message mailboxes. For example, mailbox 1 could be for business messages and mailbox 2 for personal messages. Equally you could allocate one mailbox to a colleague or someone else in your family.

In your outgoing message you can tell callers which mailbox they should use. The caller simply presses 1 or 2 on their phone’s keypad after the tone. This selects either mailbox 1 or 2.
