Answering system operation
Message capacity
The answering system of each line can record and store up to 99 messages.
The recording time of each message depends on the message length you set
(see Incoming message length on page 25). The total storage capacity of
each line for the announcement, messages, memos or two-way recording is
approximately 12 minutes. The actual recording time depends on individual
message characteristics. Messages remain available for replay until you
delete them.
Answering system new message indication
The /PLAY/STOP indicator flashes and shows on the screen when there
are new messages, memos or conversation recordings in the mailboxes.
When the new message alert tone is turned on (see Message alert tone on
page 26), the telephone beeps every 10 seconds when there are unheard
messages. Press any key to temporarily silence the message alert tone. The
next incoming message beeps normally.
Call screening
If the answering system and call screening are on (see Call screening on
page 24), you hear the announcement and the incoming message when
receiving a call. While recording messages, press VOL
-
or VOL
+
to adjust
the volume, press /PLAY/STOP of the corresponding line to temporarily
silence the call screening, or press /PLAY/STOP of the corresponding line
to continue listening the call screening.
Call intercept
When a caller is leaving a message on your answering system, you can stop
recording and speak to the caller by pressing the LINE button for the call.
Priority code
You may want to give your priority code (see Priority code on page 26) to a
caller so that you know who is calling. The caller should enter your priority code
while the answering system is playing the announcement. The telephone then
plays the priority call tone to alert you that a caller with high priority is calling.
