Answering Calls
When the system answers a call, the caller hears the announcement you recorded, followed by a beep. After
the beep, the system begins recording the caller’s message. While the system is taking a call, the Message
Window displays “—“.
NOTE: To conserve memory, messages are limited to a maximum of 2 minutes each. If the caller is
still speaking after 2 minutes, or if the caller is silent for more than 7 seconds, or if the system’s
memory runs out, the system beeps once and hangs up.
Screening Your Calls
To screen your calls, set the system to answer calls and adjust the VOLUME control so you can hear the
announcement and a caller’s message on the system’s built-in speaker.
If you decide to take a call, lift the handset of any telephone on the same line. The system stops recording
and resets to answer calls.
NOTE: If the announcement does not stop right away, press and release the telephone switch hook or
press STOP.
