Your phone features an answering
machine that records unanswered calls
when it is activated. The answering
machine can store up to 59 messages.
The maximum recording time is 3
minutes per message, or 30 minutes for
all messages. The maximum length of an
outgoing message is 1 minute. You can
use the control keys on the base station
to perform the basic functions of the
answering machine such as message
playback, deleting messages and
adjustment of volume on the base
station. For a description of each
function of the control keys on the base
station, please see “Overview of the base
station” (section 5.4) for more details.

menu to access the answering machine
functions. (Functions available differ

answering machine options.
The telephone answering machine is ON
