Using the answering

Your BT Decor 2500 can digitally record up to 30 minutes of
messages. It comes with two pre-recorded outgoing messages,
Answer & Record or Answer Only, alternatively you can record
your own version of each.
When first plugged in, your BT Decor 2500 answering machine is
ready to go. It is set to answer calls and record messages. If you
have not already set the time and date, you will need to do this so
that you will know when each message was received, see page 6.
