Saving Messages
The system saves your messages automatically if you do not delete them.
NOTE: The system can save about 12 minutes of messages. When memory is full, you must delete
some or all of the messages before any new messages can be recorded.
Deleting Selected Messages
To delete only a specific message, press and release DELETE while the message you want to delete is
being played. The system erases the message corresponding to the number shown in the Message Window,
beeps once, and continues with the next message.
To make sure you are deleting the right message, you can press REPEAT to repeat the message after
listening to it, then press DELETE while the message is playing.
After the system reaches the end of the last message, any messages that were not deleted are renumbered,
and the Message Window shows the total number of messages remaining in both mailboxes.
Replaying Deleted Messages
Before the system announces “End of messages, a deleted message can be replayed by pressing REPEAT
until the number of the message is displayed in the Message Window. However, once the system
announces, “End of messages,” a deleted message cannot be replayed.
Deleting All Messages From a Mailbox
After listening to all the messages in a mailbox, you can delete them. To delete all messages in a mailbox:
1. Press and release DELETE. Both mailbox lights flash rapidly.
2. Press MAILBOX 1 or MAILBOX 2. The system beeps and the messages in that mailbox are deleted.
If 20 seconds elapse without a proper mailbox selection, the system beeps five times and no messages are
deleted.
NOTE: Only messages that have been played are deleted and once messages have been deleted, they
cannot be replayed.
Recording a Memo
You can record a memo to be stored by the system as an incoming message in one of the mailboxes. Then,
you can play the memo at home or from a remote telephone, like any other message. The memo can be up
to two minutes long.
To record a memo:
1. Press and release MEMO. Both mailbox lights flash rapidly.
2. Press and release MAILBOX 1 or MAILBOX 2. The system beeps and begins recording. Speak
toward the microphone.
3. To stop recording, press and release STOP.
The system stores your memo as a message in the mailbox you selected, and updates the message count.
When the Memory Is Full
When F is displayed in the Message Window, the record memory is full. With no memory available for
messages, the system will answer calls after 10 rings, but it will not play the outgoing announcement nor
record messages. Instead, the system will announce “Memory is full” and beep twice.
The system answers after 10 rings so that you can still have remote access to your machine. By using
remote commands, you can replay messages, delete some or all messages, and request other functions
available on the system.
