About the answering system
Message capacity
The answering system can record up to 99 messages, depending on the length
of each message. Individual messages can be up to three minutes, and the
maximum recording time is approximately 14 minutes. The actual recording
time depends on individual message characteristics. Messages remain available
for replay until you delete them.
Voice prompts
The system provides voice prompts to guide you through the setup procedures
at the telephone base, message playback, remote access and recording
outgoing announcements.
Call screening at the telephone base
If the answering system and call screening are on, the announcement and the
incoming message broadcast at the telephone base when a call is answered at
the telephone base.
You can turn call screening on or off using the handset (see page 23). When call
screening is off, you can temporarily turn on call screening by pressing p/VOL
on the telephone base. Call screening will be off for the next incoming call.
If call screening is on and you want to silence the telephone base while it is
recording messages, press /PLAY/STOP.
Call screening at the handset
If the answering system is on, you can hear the announcement and the
incoming message with the handset when a call is answered by the answering
system. While a message is being recorded, the handset shows To screen call,
press [SELECT]. Press MENU/SELECT to screen the call.
Call intercept
While screening a call, you can stop recording and speak to the caller by
pressing PHONE/FLASH on the handset.
Temporarily turning off the message alert tone
If the new message alert tone is turned on, the telephone base beeps every 10
seconds when there are new or missed messages. Pressing any telephone base
key (except /HANDSET LOCATOR) temporarily silences the message alert tone.
If you press X/DELETE in idle mode to temporarily turn off the message
alert tone, there is a voice prompt directing you to press X/DELETE again to
delete all old messages. The message alert tone is temporarily off. Only press
X/DELETE a second time if you wish to erase all old messages.
The message alert tone resumes when you receive another message.
