Listen To, Save & Delete Messages

The system automatically saves your messages until you delete them, and can store approximately 12 minutes of messages, memos, and announcements (up to a maximum of 99 messages).

Before playing a message, the system announces the day and time it was received. While the message plays, the Message Window displays the number of the message. After playing the last message in a mailbox, the system announces “End of messages.”

When memory is full, or the maximum number of messages is recorded, the Message Window flashes F.

To play and delete messages, either press and release the appropriate button or hold it down as indicated in the chart below. When a button is held down, the system will beep.
