USING THE DIGITAL ANSWERING SYSTEM

 

 

FROM THE BASE

 

 

Your new Cobra Intenna Cordless Phone

 

 

Answering System is equipped with an all-

Cobra®

 

digital answering system built right in. That

 

means there are no cassette tapes to

 

 

 

 

malfunction, break or replace. It allows a full

 

 

20 minutes recording time (most tapes

 

 

allow only 15 minutes per side) and permits

 

 

each caller 2 full minutes to leave you a

 

 

message (most messages average only a

 

 

minute each).
