Setting Up the Answering System

Your handset controls all of the answering system setup options except for the personal greeting (personal greetings must be changed directly at the base). You can access your answering machine from anywhere in home. Here are some hints on using your handset to access your answering system:

•When the phone is in standby, press [select/] on the handset to access the answering system. REMOTE ANSWERING MACHINE OPERATION appears on the handset display, and the system announces the number of new and old messages.

•You can enter a command at any time during announcements.

•After the first announcement, you have thirty seconds to enter your first command before the system returns to standby.

•If you receive a call, answering system access is cancelled.

•If another handset makes a call, answering system access is cancelled.

•While the handset is operating the answering system, “- -” appears on the base.

Recording a Personal Greeting

Your answering system comes with a pre-recorded outgoing message or greeting that plays when you receive a call: “Hello, no one is available to take your call. Please leave a message after the tone.” You can record your own personal outgoing greeting. Your recorded greeting must be between two seconds and thirty seconds long.

1)On the base, press and hold [greeting].

2)The system announces, “Record greeting.” Begin recording after the announcement. The message counter LED displays “- -”, then begins to count down thirty seconds.

3)When you finish recording, press [greeting] again or press []. You will hear a confirmation tone, and your recorded greeting plays back for you.
