Answering system
The answering system 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 
(listen to messages, record a greeting message, 
etc.) 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 set correctly (page 
16).
Memory capacity
The total recording capacity (including your 
greeting message) is about 40 minutes. A 
maximum of 64 messages can be recorded.
Note:
L
If message memory becomes full:
– “Messages full” is shown on the handset 
and base unit display.
– The ANSWER ON indicator on the base unit 
flashes rapidly when the answering system is 
turned on.
L
When the message memory becomes full:
– 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.

You can answer the call by pressing {C} on the

Greeting message
When the unit answers a call, a greeting message 
is played to callers.

– a pre-recorded greeting message
Recording your greeting message
Greeting messages can be recorded in one of the 
two following ways:

minutes max. for each greeting)
– for line 1 and line 2 with the same greeting (2 
minutes max.). Select “Line1&Line2” in step
