About the answering system
Call intercept
While screening a call, you can stop recording and speak to the caller by
pressing PHONE/FLASH or /SPEA�ERSPEA�ER on the handset.
Base ringer
Press q/VOL/p on the telephone base to adjust the ringer volume when
the telephone is not in use.
You hear a sample of the ringer while adjusting the volume. The telephone
base announces, “Base ringer is off,” when you set the volume to 0.
Temporarily turning off the message alert tone
If the new message alert tone is turned on, the telephone base beeps every
10 seconds when there are new or missed messages. Pressing any telephone
base key (except /HANDSET LOCATOR) temporarily silences the message
alert tone.
If you press X/DELETE when in idle mode to temporarily turn off the
message alert tone, there is a voice prompt directing you to press X/DELETE
again to delete all old messages. The message alert tone is temporarily off.
Only press X/DELETE a second time if you wish to erase all old messages in
your answering system.
The message alert tone resumes when you receive another message.
