Setting up and personalising your answering machine

Your Quartet 3500 can digitally record up to 13 minutes of messages, with each message lasting a maximum of 3 minutes. As well as recording incoming messages, you can record memos for other users.

You can operate your Quartet 3500 from:

•The base unit

•The handset

•Remotely from any external Touchtone™ telephone

Your Quartet 3500 comes with two pre-recorded outgoing messages, Answer and Record or Answer Only, (see page 39) but if you wish you can record your own (see pages 40-41).

Message display on the base station

The table (on the next page) provides an explanation of what is shown on the base station display.
