8.1.3 Listening to incoming messages

The handsfree facility in the handset makes it possible for you to listen in when the

caller is dictating his message. Simply press the

button during the recording

and you will hear the caller's voice without the caller knowing. To switch off

listening in, press the

button once more.

8.1.4 Interrupting the answering machine

You can personally intervene at any time while the caller is dictating his message

by pressing the call button

. The answering machine will stop and you can

speak directly to the caller.

8.2 Recording your own greeting

Note: When it was set up, the answering machine was pre-loaded with the german

standard greeting "Please leave your message after the tone" (“Sprechen Sie bitte

Ihre Nachricht nach dem Ton”). After you have dictated your own greeting, this

standard greeting will be deleted.

Before recording your greeting, you should write down the text that you want to

record. The length of your own greeting must be at least 3 seconds and must not

exceed 60 seconds. The longer your greeting lasts, the less recording time will be

available for incoming messages. The maximum recording time in standard quality

is up to 9 minutes. If your greeting lasts for 18 seconds, for example, then 8

minutes and 42 seconds remain for incoming messages.

Example of a greeting message: "Hallo, this is 05432/1234. I am sorry but we

are not available to take your call at the moment. However, you can leave a

message if you wish. We will call back as soon as possible. Please speak after the

tone. If you hear a second tone, the recording will stop automatically".
