Listen to, Save & Delete Messages
The system automatically saves your messages until you delete them and can store 15

A message or memo can be up to 4 minutes in length.
Before playing a message, the system announces the day and time it was received. While
the message plays, the message window displays the number of the message. After play-
ing the last message in a mailbox, the system announces “
End of messages .” If the
system has less than five minutes of recording time left, it announces the remaining time.
