Answering system
The KX-TG1837 contains an answering
system which can answer and record calls
for you when you are unavailable to answer
the phone.
Important:

system (listen to messages, record a
greeting message, etc.) at a time.
L When callers leave messages, the unit
records the day 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.
Note:

If message memory becomes full, answer
on indicator on the base unit flashes
rapidly.

Using a prerecorded greeting
message
If you erase or do not record your own
greeting message, the unit will play a
prerecorded greeting message for callers
and ask them to leave messages. If the
message recording time (page 35) is set to
“Greeting Only”, caller messages will
not be recorded and the unit will play a
different prerecorded greeting message
asking callers to call again.
