Answering system
The answering system can answer and
record calls for you when you are
unavailable to answer the phone.
You can also set the unit to play a
greeting message but not to record
caller messages by selecting
“

as the recording
time setting (page 32).

When callers leave messages, the
unit records the day and time of each
message. Make sure the date and
time have been set correctly (page

Answering system announcements
are in English only.

your greeting message) is about 20
