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 
22 minutes. The actual recording time depends on individual 
message characteristics. Messages remain available for replay until 
you delete them.
When there are new messages (including memos) on the  
answering system, the number of messages stored shows in the 
message counter.
If the answering system has less than three minutes of recording 
“Less than three minutes to record,” before 
message playback at the handset or the telephone base. Rec mem 
low displays on the device screen in idle mode. When you turn on 
the answering system at the telephone base, it announces, “Calls 
will be answered. Less than three minutes to record.” 
If the memory is full, the answering system announces, “Memory 
is full,” before message playback. The device screen displays Rec 
mem full in idle mode. Once the memory is full, you cannot turn 
record new messages until old ones have been deleted. Memory 
full displays if you want to turn on the answering system on the 
handset but there is no memory.
Voice prompts
The system provides voice prompts to guide you through the setup 
procedures on your handsets, message playback, remote access 
and recording outgoing announcements. The system also provide 
basic answering system setup via voice guide to record your own 
announcement, set the number of rings, and set the message alert 
tone.
