Answering System Features (KX-TCD445 only)

Answering system

The KX-TCD445 base unit contains an answering system which can answer and record calls for you when you are unavailable to answer the phone. You can also record your own voice memos and phone conversations.

For details about memory capacity, see page 27.

Important:

LOnly 1 handset can access the answering system (listen to messages, record a greeting message, etc.) at a time.

LWhen callers leave messages, the unit records the day and time of each message. Make sure the time and date have been set (page 9).

Using a prerecorded greeting message

If you erase or do not record your own greeting message, the unit can play a prerecorded greeting message for callers and ask them to leave messages. If the message recording time (page 29) is set to “GREET ONLY”, caller messages will not be recorded and the unit will play a different prerecorded greeting message asking callers to call again.
