Answering system
Answering system overview
Voice prompts
The system provides voice prompts to guide you through recording
announcements and remote access.
Message capacity
The answering system can record up to 99 messages, depending on the
length of each message. Individual messages can be up to four minutes, and
the approximate recording time is 14 minutes. The actual recording time
depends on individual message characteristics. Messages remain available for
replay until you delete them.
If the answering system has less than three minutes of recording time left,
the remaining time is announced at the end of messages playback.
If the memory is full, the answering system announces, “Memory is full.” The
number of messages and
F flash alternately in the message window, and
REC MEM FULL appears on the handset screen. You must delete some
messages before recording new ones.
Call screening
If the answering system and call screening are on, the announcement and
the incoming message broadcast at the telephone base when a call arrives.
You can turn call screening on or off using the handset (see
Call screening setup on page 17). When call screening is off, you can
temporarily turn on call screening by pressing
PLAY/
STOP
or
VOLUME on the telephone base. Call screening will be off for the next
incoming call.
If call screening is on and you want to adjust the
playback volume to a comfortable level (1-8) while it is
recording messages, press
VOLUME on the telephone
base. This volume setting is shared with message
playback, so when you play messages at volume 1, they
play at a very low volume. If you turn up the volume
for playback, the call screening for the next incoming
message plays at the same volume level.
If call screening is on and you want to silence the telephone base while
it is recording messages, press
PLAY/
STOP
on the telephone base. Call
screening will be on for the next incoming call.
