The answering system announces the day and time of each message prior
to playing it. Before using the answering system, set the date and time as
follows. If you subscribe to caller ID service, the day, month and time are set
automatically with each incoming call. The year must be set so that the day
of the week can be calculated from the caller ID information. You can turn
off the date and time settings of the caller ID service and set the date and
time manually (see
