Recording the greeting
This answering machine has prerecorded greetings (see page 37).
However, you can record your own greeting.
The greeting must be between two seconds and four minutes long.
You can record only one greeting, and it is used regardless of the
answering mode (“normal” and “announcement only” modes. See
page 40). Therefore, if you decide to change the mode, make sure that
you record a new greeting to match the answering mode.
You can record the greeting on both the base unit and the handset.

Notes

the procedure.
• If you hear five short error beeps while recording, the recording area may be
full. In this case, erase unnecessary messages (see page 45).
• You cannot operate the base unit while the handset is in use.
• This answering machine begins to record the greeting when it detects voice.
Note that recording does not begin if the voice is extremely low or there
is no sound.
Tips
• If four minutes have passed in step 3, recording stops automatically.
• To record the greeting from a touch-tone phone, see page 50.
