Answering System

For Voice Mail service subscribers

If you subscribe to a flat-rate service package that includes Caller ID, Call Waiting, Voice Mail, and unlimited local/ regional/long distance calls, please note the following:

LTo use the Voice Mail service provided by your telephone service provider rather than the unit’s answering system, turn off the answering system (page 52).

LTo use this unit’s answering system rather than the Voice Mail service provided by your telephone service provider, please contact your telephone service provider to deactivate your Voice Mail service.

If your telephone service provider cannot do this:

Set this unit’s “Ring count” setting so that this unit’s answering system answers calls before the Voice Mail service of your telephone service provider does. It is necessary to check the ring count required to activate the Voice Mail service provided by your telephone service provider before changing this setting.

Change the ring count of the Voice Mail service so that the answering system can answer the call first. To do so, consult your telephone service provider.

Caller’s recording time

You can change the maximum message recording time allotted to each caller. The default setting is “3 min”. “Greeting only”: The unit plays the greeting message but does not record caller messages.

Note:

LIf the message memory becomes full, the unit automatically switches to the “Greeting only” mode and no new messages are recorded. If you have recorded your own greeting message, that same greeting message is announced to callers even though their messages are not recorded. If you have not recorded your own greeting message, the prerecorded message used for “Greeting only” mode is announced to callers (page 53).

L“Greeting only” cannot be set by scrolling through the display menus (page 39).
