Some messages on the answering system are cut off.

If a caller reaches the maximum recording time you set for each message (page 60 of the installation guide), the system will disconnect and part of the message may be lost.

If the caller pauses for more than seven seconds, the system stops recording and disconnects the call.

If the memory on the system becomes full during a message, the system stops recording and disconnects the call.

If the caller’s voice is very soft, the system may stop recording and disconnect the call.

If the DTAD INTERCEPT feature is on and another telephone answers the call on that line, the message will stop recording (page 69).
