Answering system
T
he answering system can answer and record
calls for you when you are unavailable to
answer the phone.
You can also set the unit to play a greeting
message but not to record caller messages by
selecting “Greeting only” as the recording
time setting (page 39).
Important:
R Only 1 person can access the answering
system (listen to messages, record a
greeting message, etc.) at a time.
R When callers leave messages, the unit
records the day and time of each message.
Make sure the date and time have been set
correctly (page 15).
Memory capacity (including your
g
reeting message)
The total recording capacity is about 18
minutes. A maximum of 64 messages can be
recorded.
Note:
R When message memory becomes full:
– “Messages full” is shown on the
handset display.
– The ANSWER ON/OFF indicator on the
base unit flashes rapidly if the answering
system is turned on.
– The message counter on the base unit
flashes if the answering system is turned
on.
– If you use the pre-recorded greeting
message, the unit automatically switches
to another pre-recorded greeting
message asking callers to call again
later.
– If you recorded your own greeting
message, the same message is still
announced to callers even though their
messages are not recorded.
