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 3 minutes, and the
maximum recording time is approximately 11 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 3 minutes of recording time left, it
announces, “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 the answering system back
on if it has been turned off, nor can you 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
at the telephone base, message playback, remote access and recording
outgoing announcements.
