Temporarily turning off the message alert tone
If the message alert tone is turned on, the telephone base beeps every 10
seconds when there are new or missed messages. Pressing any telephone
base key (except /FIND HANDSET) temporarily silences the message
alert tone.
If you press
DELETE/X when in idle mode to temporarily turn off the
message alert tone, there is a voice prompt directing you to press DELETE/X
again to delete all old messages. The message alert tone is temporarily off.
Only press DELETE/X a second time if you wish to erase all old messages in
your answering system.
The message alert tone resumes when you receive a new message.
Message playback
On the telephone base, if you have new messages, the
telephone plays only the new messages (oldest first). If
there are no new messages, the telephone plays back all
messages (oldest first).
On the handset, if you have both new and old messages,
you can play either new or old messages. The caller ID
information displays on the handset screen when you play
messages and you can call back the caller.
When playback begins, the handset displays the message
status, caller ID information, and time and date of the
message recorded. You hear the total number of messages
followed by the day and time of the message. After the last
message, the telephone announces, “End of messages,”
and the handset displays End of messages.
