Answering System
66
For Voice Mail service subscribers
If you subscribe to a flat-rate service
package that includes Call Display, Call
Waiting, Voice Mail, and unlimited local/
regional/long distance calls, please note
the following:
L
To use the Voice Mail service provided
by your telephone service provider
rather than the unit’s answering system,
turn off the answering system (page 60).
L
To use this unit’s answering system
rather than the Voice Mail service
provided by your telephone service
provider, please contact your telephone
service provider to deactivate your Voice
Mail service.
If your telephone service provider
cannot do this:
– Set this unit’s “
Ring count
” setting
so that this unit’s answering system
answers calls before the Voice Mail
service of your telephone service
provider does. It is necessary to check
the ring count required to activate the
Voice Mail service provided by your
telephone service provider before
changing this setting.
– Change the ring count of the Voice
Mail service so that the answering
system can answer the call first. To do
so, consult your telephone service
provider.
Caller’s recording time
You can change the maximum message
recording time allotted to each caller.
The default setting is “
3 min
”.
“
Greeting only
”: The unit plays the
greeting message but does not record
caller messages.

Note:
L
If the message memory becomes full,
the unit automatically switches to the
“
Greeting only
” mode and no new
messages are recorded. If you have
recorded your own greeting message,
that same greeting message is
announced to callers even though their
messages are not recorded. If you have
not recorded your own greeting
message, the prerecorded message
used for “
Greeting only
” mode is
announced to callers (page 61).
L
“
Greeting only
” cannot be set by
scrolling through the display menus
(page 46).
