Receiving calls

If you receive an incoming call when the device is in sleep mode or the screen is
locked, the phone application opens in fullscreen format. If you receive an incoming
call when the screen is active, the incoming call is displayed as a floating notification,
that is, in a minimised window that floats at the top of whatever screen is open. When
such a notification arrives, you can choose to answer the call and open the phone
application screen, or you can reject the call and stay on the current screen.

Using the answering machine
You can use the answering machine application in your device to answer calls when
you are busy or miss a call. You can enable the automatic answering function and
determine how many seconds to wait before the calls get answered automatically.
You can also manually route calls to the answering machine when you are too busy
to answer them. And you can access messages left on your answering machine
directly from your device.
Before using the answering machine, you must record a greeting message.
