Message playback

If you have new messages, /PLAY/STOP on the telephone base flashes and only the new messages are played (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 of the recording. If the date and time is not set, you hear, “Time and date not set,” before playback. After the last message, you hear, “End of messages.” If the recording time is less than three minutes, you hear, “Less than three minutes to record,” (see Message capacity on page 60).
