ANSWERING MACHINE (TAM)
Your phone system includes a telephone answering machine (TAM)
that records unanswered calls when it is switched on. The answering
system can store up to 59 messages within the maximum recording
time of about 15 minutes. As well as recording incoming messages,
you can record memos for other users of your phone. If the answering
machine memory is full, the handset will display TAM FULL alternately
with the handset name, and you will have to delete messages before
more new ones can be recorded.
When the TAM is full, it will only play your Answer Only outgoing
message and not allow the caller to leave a message.

Switching TAM On/Off
You can turn the answering machine on or off using the handset. When
the answering machine is set to ON, the base TAM indicator will be
on and the handset will display the TAM icon. Calls will be answered
after the set answer delay and if it is set to Answer and Record mode,
the caller can then leave you a message. When the answering system
is set to OFF, calls will be answered after 14 rings and the answer only
message will be played to your callers. They will not be able to leave
you a message.
