Greeting Message
You can record a personal greeting message of
up to 2 minutes
. If you do not
record your own message, one of two pre-recorded greetings will be played for
callers (p. 25).
•
You can use the enhanced recording mode for clearer sound, if necessary (p. 28).
To record a greeting message
•
If “ ” is displayed, 6 beeps sound and “
Your greeting was not recorded. Record your
greeting again.
” is announced, start again from step 1.
The total recording time of all messages (greeting, incoming and memo) is
about 16 minutes
. We recommend you record
a brief greeting message
in
order to leave more time for recording new messages.
