Set date/time

The answering system announces the day and time of each message prior to playing it. Before using the answering system, set the date and time as follows. If you subscribe to caller ID service, the day, month and time are set automatically with each incoming call. The year must be set so that the day of the week can be calculated from the caller ID information. You can turn off the date and time settings of the caller ID service and use your own settings for each incoming call (see the Use caller ID to automatically set date and time section on the following page).
