Answering System Features
56
For voice mail service subscribers
Please note the following:
– To receive messages correctly with your
voice mail service, we recommend that
you do not use the unit’s answering
system. Make sure that the answering
system is turned off (page 51).
– If you would rather use the unit’s
answering system rather than the voice
mail service provided by your service
provider, ask your service provider to
deactivate your voice mail service.
If your service provider cannot do this, set
this unit’s
“
Number of Rings
”
setting
so that this unit’s answering system
answers calls before the service
provider’s voice mail service tries to
answer your calls. It is necessary to check
the number of rings required to activate
the voice mail service provided by your
service provider before changing this
setting.
Selecting the caller’s recording
time
You can change the maximum message
recording time allotted to each caller, or set

messages.

to all new messages.
