Answering system
The answering system can answer and
record calls for you when you are
unavailable to answer the phone.
You can also set the unit to play a
greeting message but not to record
caller messages by selecting
“Greeting Only” as the recording
time setting (page 37).
Important:
LWhen callers leave messages, the
unit records the day and time of each
message. Make sure the date and
time have been set correctly (page
13).
LAnswering system announcements
are in English only.

Memory capacity (including

your greeting message)

The total recording capacity is about 20
minutes. A maximum of 64 messages
can be recorded.
Note:
LIf message memory becomes full:
–“Messages Full” is shown on the
handset display.
– The answer on indicator on the
base unit flashes rapidly when the
answering system is turned on.
LWhen the message memory becomes
full:
– If you use the pre-recorded greeting
message, the unit automatically
switches to another pre-recorded
greeting message asking callers to
call again later.
– If you recorded your own gr eeting
message, the same message is still
announced to callers even though
their messages are not recorded.
