AT THE BASE

Listen To, Save & Delete Messages

The system automatically saves your messages until you delete them, and can store approximately 15 minutes of messages, memos, and announcements (up to a maximum of 99 messages).

After 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.” If the system has less than five minutes of recording time left, it announces remaining time.
