THE
BASE
You can screen incoming calls by waiting for
the caller to begin leaving a message (to
hear who it is), then pick up the handset, and
press PHONE to talk to the caller. The
answering machine automatically stops
recording when you activate the handset or
pick up an extension phone.
TIP:
Make sure the volume on the base is set
loud enough to hear your incoming calls.
