Notes

•

Do not allow more than 20 seconds to elapse during the operation procedure.

•

The same greeting is used regardless of the answering mode. Therefore, if

you decide to change the mode, make sure that you record a new greeting to

match the answering mode.

Tips

•

When the phone is in announcement only mode, “ANNOUNCE

ONLY” will

appear on the standby mode display.

•

When you select “[GO

BACK]”, you can return to the previous set display by

pressing Jog Button (ENTER).

When the memory is full

The recording area of this phone’s memory is about 20 minutes*

(including the greeting, messages, and memo). If the remaining

recording area becomes less than one minute, the phone automatically

switches to announcement only mode, which does not record

messages, and the greeting will be switched to the pre-recorded

greeting. Confirm the available time left for recording in the standby

mode display.

* Available time for recording at “NORM (LONG

PLAY)” sound quality.

If you wish to record more messages, erase the existing messages (see

page 65). You can also erase the messages from an outside phone (see

page 69).

Setting the audible message indicator

You have the option of having a beep to tell you if you have received

any new messages. The audible message indicator is preset to “ON”.
