9 Answering machine
Your fax machine is equipped with a digital telephone
answering machine. All recorded messages are stored in a
solid-state electronic memory which has a recording
capacity of up to 30 minutes. There is neither a magnetic
tape nor a cassette.
Your answering machine is factory-programmed with a
recorded outgoing message. If you want to record your
own outgoing message, proceed as described under
“Recording a message”.
Make sure that your fax machine stands on a hard, flat
surface, because otherwise the microphone may be
covered.

mode is indicated with the symbol b on the display.

Forwarding messages
Your fax machine can automatically forward all incoming mes-
sages to another telephone number. Enter the telephone number
to which you wish recorded calls to be forwarded. You can select
the number of messages to be forwarded each time. Your fax
machine will wait until the selected number of messages has been
received and then calls the desired number automatically. A text
announcing the call forwarding is transmitted when the connec-
tion is made. Then the party to which the calls are being for-
warded needs to enter the access code (see function 52). If the
correct access code is not entered within 40 seconds, your fax
machine will disconnect the call.
