This unit contains an answering system 
which can answer and record calls for 
you when you are unavailable to answer 
the phone.
Important:
L

Only 1 person can access the 
answering system at a time.

L

When callers leave messages, the 
unit records the day and time of each 
message. Make sure the date and 
time have been correctly set (page 
29).

The total recording capacity (including 
caller messages and voice memos) is 
about 45 minutes.
A maximum of 99 messages can be 
recorded.

If the message memory becomes full, 
{

6}

 on the base unit flashes rapidly. 

Erase unnecessary messages (page 
62).

L

When the message memory becomes 
full, the greeting message is different 
depending on your situation:
– If you use the pre-recorded greeting 

message, the unit automatically 
switches to another pre-recorded 
greeting message asking callers to 
call again later.

– If you recorded your own greeting 

message, the same message is still 
announced to callers even though 
their messages are not recorded.
