ANSWERING SYSTEM OPERATION

This section discusses the buttons and features on the answering system.

MESSAGES INDICATOR

The base LCD indicator shows you how many messages you have. The messages indicator will be on to indicate you have new messages.

SCREENING CALLS FROM

THE BASE

You can screen incoming calls by waiting for the caller to begin leaving a message (to hear who it is), then pick up the handset, and pressTALK to talk to the caller. The answering system automatically stops recording when you activate the handset or pick up an extension phone.

TIP: Make sure the volume on the base is set loud enough to hear your incoming calls.
