Answering system
Message capacity
The system can record up to 99 messages. Individual messages can be up to
three minutes. The total recording time for the announcement, messages
and memos is approximately 25 minutes. If the memory is full, the answering
system announces,
“Memory is full”
before message playback. The screen
displays
Memory is full
in idle mode. Once the memory is full, the answering
system will not answer calls even it is turned on, nor can you record new
messages until old ones have been deleted.
Messages remain available for replay until you delete them. When there are
new messages (including memos) on the answering system, the screen shows
XX new messages
.

message playback, remote access and recording outgoing announcements.
