Answering system operation
Day & time announcements
To set day and time
Before playing each message, the answering sys-
tem announces the day and time the message
was received.
Before using the answering system, follow the
steps on the left to set the day and time, so mes-
sages are dated correctly. If the clock is not set,
before playing messages, the system will prompt
"Power failure" each time.
To begin, press and hold the CLOCK button for
two seconds.
The system uses voice prompts to guide you.
Each time you press SKIP or REPEAT , the
day, hour, minute or year increases or decreases
by one. When you hear the correct setting, press
CLOCK to move to the next setting.

NOTES:
1. The answering system must be on to review or
change settings.
2. Caller ID provides the time and date. Set the
year so that the day of the week can be calcu-
lated from the caller ID information. After you
set the time once, it will always be set auto-
matically with incoming caller ID information.
The time will be set automatically only if you
subscribe to caller ID service provided by your
local telephone company (page 15).
