Answering system
The answering system can answer and record
calls for you when you are unavailable to answer
the phone.
Important:
ROnly 1 person can access the answering
system (listen to messages, record a greeting
message, etc.) at a time.
RWhen 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).

Memory capacity (including your

greeting message)

The total recording capacity is about 40 minutes. A
maximum of 64 messages can be recorded.
Note:
RWhen message memory becomes full:
–“Messages full” is shown on the base
unit and handset display.
– The ANSWER ON/OFF indicator on the base
unit flashes rapidly if the answering system is
turned on.
– 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 greeting message,
the same message is still announced to
callers even though their messages are not
recorded.
