Listening to Messages
Using the Base Unit
You can see the total number of recorded 
messages on the base unit display. If the 
ANSWER ON indicator flashes, new 
messages have been recorded. The mailbox 
icons (
 and 
) which have 
new messages also flash on the base unit 
display. 
• If only old messages exist in a mailbox, the mailbox icon will be displayed but will 
not flash.
• If the Message Alert is turned on (p. 25), the Ringer/Message Alert indicator on 
the handset will flash slowly when new messages have been recorded and the 
handset is not in use.
To play back messages
Press the MAILBOX button ([MAILBOX 1][MAILBOX 2], or 
[MAILBOX 3]).
• The unit announces “Mailbox (No.)” and the number of new messages in the 
mailbox, then plays back the new messages.
• If the mailbox also contains old messages, only new messages will be played 
back.
• When the mailbox has no new messages, the unit announces “Mailbox (No.)” 
and “No new messages. All message playback”, then plays back all messages in the 
mailbox.
• During playback, the display shows the message number of the mailbox and the 
mailbox icon. 
• At the end of the last message of the mailbox, “End of final message” is heard. The 
unit will announce the remaining recording time if it is less than 3 minutes.
• When the mailbox has no messages, the unit announces “Mailbox (No.)” and “No 
messages”.
Voice Day/Time Stamp: During playback, the unit will announce the day and 
time when each message was recorded (p. 17).
