Answering system operation

are dated correctly. Each time you press and release the CHANGE button on the telephone base, the
day, hour, minute, or year advances by one unit. When you hear the correct setting, press TIME/SET
to move to the next setting. Pressing and holding the CHANGE button when setting the day and time
will increase the minutes or years by 10.

• If you have caller

the time will
automatically
be updated
whenever caller
ID information
is delivered.
However, since
the date, rather
than the day, is
delivered, you
have to program
the year once, so
the system can
derive the day of
the week.
