Memos
A personal memo can be recorded
on your Quartet 1500 and left as a
message for another user. Memos can
be of any length, up to the maximum
recording capacity (15 minutes), but
you should try to keep them short
to allow time for recording incoming
messages.
To screen a call from the
base unit
If the handset is resting on
the base unit and you
decide to take the call, lift
the handset and speak to
the caller.
Recording will stop
automatically.
Call screening
You can let your answering machine
pick up a call, even if you are in.
This allows you to identify the caller
and decide whether to take the call.
Make sure the volume is set to an
audible level,
see page 22
. Allow the
incoming call to be answered by your
Quartet 1500 answering machine as
normal. You will hear the caller begin
to leave a message.
