Answer on/off

If you turn the answering system on, it answers calls and records messages only on the home line. If your paired cell phone has voicemail, callers can leave messages with that voicemail service.

If your answering system is turned off and you change any of its settings, the answering system automatically turns on again.

When the answering system is turned on, the /ANS ON/OFF light on the telephone base is on and the handsets display ANS ON.

To turn the answering system on or off:

Using the telephone base:

Press /ANS ON/OFF to turn the answering system on or off. When the answering system is turned on, it announces, “Calls will be answered.” When the answering system is turned off, it announces, “Calls will not be answered.”

NOTE: If the answering system is off and there is an incoming call, the system answers after ten rings and announces, “Please enter your remote access code.” For more information about remote access, see pages 93-94.
