Operating the Answering Machine While You Are Away from Home

You can access your answering machine while you are away from home to check, play, and delete messages, or even record a new greeting message or turn your answering machine on and off.

• The answering machine will only play back

NOTES messages for four minutes and then it returns to the command-waiting mode. To continue playing your messages, press 0 then 2 again within 15 seconds.

•If you enter an incorrect security code three times, you will hear a beep and the answering machine will return to standby.

To operate from a remote location, use any touch-tone telephone, and follow these steps:

1.Call your telephone number and wait for the answering machine to answer. If the answering machine is off, it will answer after about ten rings and sounds a series of beeps.

2.During the greeting message (or a series of beeps when the answering machine is off), press 0 and enter your security code/PIN within two seconds (see “Setting a Security Code or Personal Identification Number (PIN)” on page 77).

3.The answering machine announces the current time and the number of messages stored in memory. You hear “To play incoming messages, press zero-two. For help, press one- zero” followed by a beep.
