If you have new messages, you hear only the new messages (oldest first). If there are no new messages, the system plays back all the messages (oldest first).

When playback begins, the total number of messages is announced. Before each message, you hear the day and time it was received. After the last message, you hear “End of messages.” If the system has less than five minutes of recording time left, you hear the remaining time.
