Recording Distance
For normal voice levels, a distance of 5 to 9 inches (13 to 22 cm)
between the recorder and the recording source (person speaking,
for example) should be appropriate. To find the optimum distance
between the recording source and the recorder, experiment with
various distances.
PLAYING BACK MESSAGES
Your recorder has several options for playing back your messages.
You can play the most recent message and go directly from playback
to recording. You can also fast forward through messages or skip
backward or forward to get to the message you want to hear.

The recorder beeps once, plays back the most recent message,
then beeps again.
During playback, PLAY flashes and the time remaining in the current
