Your ISDN telephone has three answering machines (AM1, AM2, AM3), each of which 

you can operate and set independently. You can operate the answering machines either 

directly via a registered handset (using the menu) or by remote control (internal or 

external call to the answering machine, see user guide for base station). 
Which answering machine you can operate directly using your handset depends on the 

assignment of the receive MSNs: 
Answering machines are not assigned an MSN (factory default):
◆ AM1 answers all calls.
◆ Each answering machine can be set, operated and played back from any handset/

terminal.

One or more MSNs are assigned to each answering machine:
Each answering machine can only be set and played back using handsets/terminals with 

the same receive MSN.

Exception: If a receive MSN is assigned exclusively to one answering machine, and not 

to any other handset/terminal, then this answering machine can be operated by all 

internal subscribers.

The date and time of arrival of each message is logged if you have previously activated 

this function (page 63).
You can hide answering machines you do not wish to use, see page 52.
