14. ANSWERING MACHINE
Your phone includes a telephone answering machine that records unanswered calls when it is on.
The answering machine can store up to 59 messages within the maximum recording time of approximately
30 minutes and each message can be up to 3 minutes long.
When the answering machine is on, calls are answered after the set “RING DELAY”.
If you have selected “RECORD MSGS” then the caller can leave you a message after hearing your
announcement.
If you have selected “ANSWER ONLY” mode, the caller can only listen to your announcement but cannot
leave you a message. If the answering machine memory is full, the answering machine LED on the base
flashes rapidly, the answering machine icon on the handset flashes slowly and the “ANSWER ONLY”
announcement will be played to new callers. You will have to delete some messages before any new ones
can be recorded.

14.2 Answer Mode
The phone comes with two pre-recorded announcements for the respective answer modes: “ANSWER
ONLY” and “RECORD MSGS”. By default, the answer mode is “RECORD MSGS” which allows a caller
to leave a message on the answering machine after hearing the announcement. This can be changed to
“ANSWER ONLY” mode, which does not allow callers to leave any messages on the answering machine
after hearing the announcement.
