Remotely Operating Your Answering Machine

You can access your answering machine while you are away from home to check, play, delete messages, or even record a new greeting message or to turn your answering machine on and off.

Note:

The answering machine will only playback messages for four minutes and then it returns to the command- waiting mode. To continue playing your messages, press [#] then [2] again within 15 seconds.

If you enter an incorrect security code three times, you will hear a beep and the answering machine will return to standby.
