Press
twice to skip back to the start of the
previous message.
Press
to increase or decrease the playback
volume level.
At the end of playback the base will return to idle
mode and messages will be renumbered to take into
account any deleted messages.
Delete all old (played) messages
1. In idle mode, press
. The base will announce,
“To delete all old messages, press Delete”.
2. Press
within 3 seconds to delete all old
messages. You will hear, “All old messages deleted.”
(If you don’t press
within 3 seconds you will
hear, “Messages saved”).
Memory full
If there is only 10 seconds of
memory capacity left when a
caller is leaving a message they
will hear, “Please complete your
message within 10 seconds.” If
a caller is still leaving a message
when the memory expires they
will hear, “Memory full. Thank
you for calling”, and the call will
be ended.
If your answer machine
memory becomes full and it is
set to Answer and record it will
automatically switch to Answer
only mode. Once messages
have been deleted and there
is memory available again, the
machine will revert to Answer
and record mode (unless
you have changed the mode
yourself to Answer only using
the handset menu).
You will need to delete
messages before your answer
machine will be able to record
new ones. To delete all old
(played) messages, see page
37 and opposite.
