Answering system
The answering system can answer and
record calls for you when you are
unavailable to answer the phone.
Important:
L
Only 1 person can access the
answering system (listen to
messages, record a greeting
message, etc.) at a time.
L
When callers leave messages, the
unit records the day and time of each
message. Make sure the date and
time have been correctly set (page
16).
Memory capacity
The total recording capacity (including
your greeting message and caller
messages) is about 16 minutes. A
maximum of 64 messages can be
recorded.
Note:
L
If message memory becomes full:
– “
Messages full
” is shown on the
handset display
– the message indicator on the base
unit flashes rapidly
L
When the message memory
becomes full, the greeting message is
different depending on your situation:
– If you use the prerecorded greeting
message, the unit automatically
switches to another prerecorded
greeting message asking callers to
call again later.
– If you recorded your own greeting
message, the same message is still
announced to callers even though
their messages are not recorded.
