Answering system settings

Answer on/off

If you turn the answering system on, it answers calls and records messages

only on the home line. If your paired cell phone has voicemail, callers can

leave messages with that voicemail service.

If your answering system is turned off and you change any of its settings,

the answering system automatically turns on again and the handset displays

Calls will be answered.

When the answering system is turned on, the /ANS ON

light on the telephone base is on and the handsets display

ANS ON.

To turn the answering system on or off:

Using the telephone base:

Press /ANS ON to turn the answering system on or off. When the answering

system is turned on, it announces, “Calls will be answered.” When the

answering system is turned off, it announces, “Calls will not be answered.”

NOTES:

If there is no remaining recording time, the answering system announces “Calls will not

be answered.” and cannot be turned on.

“Less than three minutes to record.” and your handsets display Rec mem low.
