Screening Your Calls
You can use the answering system for
call screening
. While the system takes a
message, you can listen on the base speaker (if you turn on
Call Screen
) or from a
handset. Only one handset can screen calls at a time. If another handset tries to
screen the call, it beeps and returns to standby.
