Set date/time
The answering system announces the day and time of each message prior
to playing it. Before using the answering system, set the date and time as
follows. If you subscribe to caller ID service, the day, month and time are
set automatically with each incoming call. The year must be set so that the
day of the week can be calculated from the caller ID information. You can
turn off the date and time settings of the caller ID service and set the date
and time manually (see
Use caller ID to automatically set date and time
on page 17).
