About the answering system
Call screening at the telephone base
If the answering system and call screening are on, the announcement and
the incoming message are audible at the telephone base when a call arrives.
You can turn call screening on or off using a cordless handset (see page 21)
or using the telephone base. When call screening is off, you can temporarily
turn on the call screening by pressing /PLAY/STOP on the telephone base.
The call screening will be off for the next incoming call.
If call screening is on and you want to silence the telephone base while it is
recording messages, press MUTE on the telephone base. The call screening
will be on for the next call.
Call intercept
While screening a call, you can stop recording and speak to the caller by
pressing PHONE/FLASH or /SPEA�ERSPEA�ER on a cordless handset, or pressing
SPEA�ER or lift the corded handset on the telephone base.
Base ringer
Press pq/VOLUME 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 screen shows Ringer off
and when the ringer is off.
Temporarily turn off the message alert tone
If the new message alert tone is turned on (see page 23), the telephone base
beeps every 10 seconds when there are new or missed messages. Pressing
any telephone base key (except 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
turned off. Only press X/DELETE a second time if you wish to erase all old
messages in the answering system.
The message alert tone resumes when you receive another message.
