ANSWER MACHINE

Call screening

You can let your answering machine pick up a call, even if you are in. This allows you to identify the caller and decide whether to take the call.

Make sure the volume on the base unit is set to an audible level,

see page 36. Allow the incoming call to be answered by your BT Freelance XA 3000 answering machine as normal. You will hear the caller begin to leave a message.

To screen a call from the base unit

While listening to your caller leaving a message, via the base unit loudspeaker, you can decide to take the call by pressing the TALK button on the handset.

Or

If the handset is resting on the base unit and you decide to take the call, lift the handset and speak to the caller.

Recording will stop automatically.
