Answering system operation
Day & time announcements
To set day and time
Before playing each message, the answering system
announces the day and time when the message was
received.
Before using the answering system, follow the steps
on the left of this page to set the day, time and year,
so that messages are dated correctly. If the clock is not
set, before new messages are recorded, the system will
announce "Time and day not set" before each message
is played back.
The system uses voice prompts to guide you. Each time
you press SKIP or REPEAT, the day, hour, minute or
year increases or decreases by one. When you hear the
correct setting, press CLOCK to move to the next set-
ting, or press and hold CLOCK to exit the clock menu.
To check day and time
You can press CLOCK at any time to hear the cur-
rent day and time without changing it.
NOTES:
1. You can press and hold SKIP or REPEAT to increase or
decrease the minutes or years by increments of ten.
2. Caller ID provides the time and date. Set the year so that
the day of the week can be calculated from the caller ID
information. After you set the time once, it will thereafter
be set automatically with incoming caller ID information.
The time will be set automatically only if you subscribe to
caller ID service provided by your local telephone company
(page 28).
