Greeting Message

You can record a personal greeting message. If a greeting message is not recorded, one of two pre-recording greeting will be played when a call is received.

All messages (greeting, incoming, memo, etc.) are stored in digital memory (p. 39). The total

recording time is about 12 minutes. The greeting recording time is limited to 2 minutes and 30

seconds. We recommend you record a brief greeting message (see the sample below) in order to leave more time for recording new messages.
