FULL TAPE

When the tape is full, the Messages indicator light flashes rapidly. The machine answers on the 10th ring and emits a tone. To clear the tape, play the messages and do not save them.

THE MESSAGES INDICATOR LIGHT

The following table tells you what the Messages indicator light is doing.

What the light is doing

CALL SCREENING/AUTO DISCONNECT

Because the answerer automatically stops recording when any extension phone is picked up (Auto Disconnect feature), you can screen incoming calls. Listen as the caller leaves a message and pick up the handset (or any extension phone) if you want to talk to that caller.

MEMO BUTTON

The MEMO button serves two purposes:

Enables you to leave a message on the answering machine.

Enables you to activate the Instant Replay feature, which repeats the previous 10 seconds of the message you are playing back.
