Memory full
If there is only 10 seconds of 
memory capacity left when a 
caller is leaving a message they 
will hear, “Please complete your 
message within 10 seconds.” If 
a caller is still leaving a message 
when the memory expires they 
will hear, “Memory full. Thank 
you for calling”, and the call will 
be ended.
If your answer machine 
memory becomes full and it is 
set to Answer and record it will 
automatically switch to Answer 
only mode. Once messages 
have been deleted and there 
is memory available again, the 
machine will revert to Answer 
and record mode (unless 
you have changed the mode 
yourself to Answer only using 
the handset menu).
You will need to delete 
messages before your answer 
machine will be able to record 
new ones. To delete all old 
(played) messages, see page  
44 and opposite.
Press 
 to increase or decrease the playback 
volume level.
At the end of playback the base will return to idle 
mode and messages will be renumbered to take into 
account any deleted messages.
Delete all old (played) messages
1. In idle mode, press 
Delete
. The base will announce,

 within 3 seconds to delete all old messages. 
You will hear, “All old messages deleted.” (If you 
don’t press 
Delete
 within 3 seconds you will hear, 
“Messages saved”).
Remote access
With remote access you can operate your answer 
machine from any Touchtone™ phone, even if you 
forget to turn on your answer machine before you 
go out.
You need to set a remote access PIN first and then 
you will need to turn remote access On if you want 
to use this feature.
