Message playback

If you have new messages on either line, the

/PLAY/SToP

indicator for that line

flashes. The

/PLAY/SToP

indicator turns off after you listen to the new messages.

When playback begins, the total number of messages is announced. Before
each message, you hear the date and time of the recording. If the date and
time are not set, the answering system announces, “Time and day not set,”
before each message (see

Date and time on page 16). The telephone plays

only the new messages (oldest first). If there are no new messages, the
system plays back all the messages (oldest first).

After the last message, you hear “End of messages.” If the system has less
than three minutes of recording time left, you hear, “Less than three minutes to
record.
