Answering System
46 For assistance, please visit http://www.panasonic.com/phonehelp
L To use the Voice Mail service provided
by your telephone company rather than
the unit’s answering system, turn off the
answering system (page 41).
This unit does not have an indicator to
indicate if there are new messages in
your mailbox service.
L To use this unit’s answering system
rather than the Voice Mail service
provided by your telephone company,
please contact your telephone company
to deactivate your Voice Mail service.
If your telephone company cannot do
this:
– Set this unit’s “Ring count” setting
so that this unit’s answering system
answers calls before your telephone
company’s Voice Mail service tries to
answer your calls. It is necessary to
check the ring count required to
activate the Voice Mail service
provided by your telephone company
before changing this setting.
– Change the ring count of the Voice
Mail service so that the answering
system can answer the call first. To do
so, consult your telephone company.
Caller’s recording time
You can change the maximum message
recording time allotted to each caller.
The default setting is “3min”. “Greeting
only”: The unit plays the greeting
message but does not record caller
messages.
