11 Answering Machine

The integrated digital answering machine offers a total recording time of up to
14 minutes for outgoing and incoming messages.
The answering machine's vocal output is English and cannot be changed.
You can access the answering machine from the base station as well as from
the handset. Using a telephone with tone dialling (DTMF) you have also a PIN
protected remote access.
You can select between two modes:
- Answer and record
- Answer only.
A standard announcement is already saved for every operating type at the
delivery stage. Therefore the answering machine is immediately operational. At
"Answer and record" and reaching of the maximum recording capacity the
device will automatically switch to the operating type "Answer only".
If the answering machine is turned off the announcement for the operating type
"Answer only" will be played after approx. 10 rings.
You can see from the corresponding symbol on the display of the handset that
the answering machine is turned on.
When listening messages date and time of the respective message will be
shown/announced. For this reason date and time have to be set correctly
(menu: Settings / Clock/Alarm / Date/Time).
The display on the base station shows the operating state and gives you fur-
ther information:
