After the system answers a call, it plays the outgoing message, beeps, then records the caller’s message. Each incoming message can be up to 1 or 4 minutes long, depending on how you set the recording time (see “Setting the Record Time” on Page 28). The maximum recording capacity is about 16 minutes (or 59 messages).
The system stops recording and resets to answer the next call when:
•The caller hangs up.
•The maximum message length is reached.
•The system detects a busy signal or more than 7 seconds of silence.
•You pick up the handset or any phone on the same phone line. ±ý
