Answering System Operation

Recording and playing memos and phone conversations

Memos are messages you record yourself. They are
saved, played back and deleted exactly like incoming
messages. You can record a memo as a reminder to
yourself, or leave a message for someone else if others
in your household use the answering system.

Note:

You can also record a phone conversation. This is also known as 2-

way recording.

You can record a memo or phone conversation up to
four minutes long. Memos or phone conversations less
than one second will not be recorded.

mailbox. Press

to stop recording.

To record a phone conversation (Base Only)

NOTE:

The far-end parties will hear a long beep when the recording is initi-

ated. There will be no other indication to them, so to ensure compliance

with any state and federal regulations that concern recording a telephone call,
you should start the recording process and then inform the caller that you are
recording the call.

NOTE:

While you are recording the conversation, you can press CLEAR to

stop recording and delete the already-recorded portion of the conversation.

NOTE:

2-way recordings are never in the "new" message list, because you

have already heard them.
