Only 1 person can access the
answering system (listen to
messages, record a greeting
message, etc.) at a time.
L When callers leave messages, the
unit records the date and time of each
message. Make sure the date and
time have been set (page 14).
Memory capacity
The total recording capacity (including
your greeting message and caller
messages) is about 20 minutes. A
maximum of 64 messages can be
recorded.

Using a pre-recorded greeting
message
If you erase or do not record your own
greeting message, the unit plays a pre-
recorded greeting message for callers
and asks them to leave messages. If the
message recording time (page 30) is set
to “Greeting Only”, caller messages
will not be recorded and the unit will play
a different pre-recorded greeting
message asking callers to call again.
