Using the answering machine
Your BT Glide can digitally record up to 15 minutes
of messages. You can also record memos for other
users of your phone.
You control your answering machine and listen to
your messages with the handset. You can also
access your answering machine remotely from any
external Touchtone

you when using the answering machine.
When first switched on, your BT Glide answering
machine is ready to go. It is set to answer calls and
record messages. If you have not already set the
day and time, you will need to do this so that you
will know when each message was received,
