Recording and playing memos
Memos are messages you record yourself. They are
saved, played back and deleted exactly like incoming
messages. You can record a memo in your mailbox as a
reminder to yourself, or leave a message for someone
else if others in your household use other mailboxes.
To record a memo
Follow the steps at left to record a memo in Mailbox 1,
2 or 3. Elapsed time (in seconds) will be shown in the
message window as you record. You can record a
memo up to 4 minutes long. Memos less than 1 second
long will not be recorded.
To play back a memo
Press any mailbox button (
@
MBOX1/2/3
) to hear
messages and memos (see page 30 for other options).
