Erasing All Messages in a Mailbox
1. When the answerer isn’t playing or recording messages, press and hold ERASE.
The answerer will ask you to select a mailbox.
2. Press and release the mailbox button you want to erase. The answerer announces
the messages have been erased.
TIP: The 29861 is equipped with a special feature to retrieve deleted
messages.
You may retrieve all deleted messages in a particular mailbox
immediately after utilizing the Erase All function, by pressing the mailbox
button from which you just deleted the messages. The Message Counter
shows the original number of messages stored in that mailbox before the
message deletion.
Do not press any other buttons before you retrieve a deleted message,
otherwise the messages are permanantly deleted.
NOTE: If there are unheard messages in a mailbox, they will not be erased
by Erase All. If there are only new messages in a mailbox, the unit will
announce “Zero messages erased”.
Leaving a Memo
This feature allows you to leave a memo for someone in a specific mailbox.
1. Press and release the MEMO/ TWO WAY button. The unit shows Lc on the display
and asks you to select a mailbox.
2. Press and hold the desired mailbox button. Record after the tone.
3. Release the mailbox button when you finish. The unit treats the memo as a
message, as the MESSAGES counter and mailbox indicator show.
NOTE: The length of time for recording a memo depends on how many
messages are currently stored by the answerer.
