SCREENING CALLS

To screen calls, let the answering sys-
tem answer them. Listen to the caller's
message through the answering sys-
tem's speaker. If you decide to answer
the call, pick up any phone on the
same phone line as the answering
system. The answering system stops
recording and resets to answer the
next call.
Note: If you pick up the phone just as
the answering system answers, the
answering system might not stop play-
ing the message. If this happens,
hang up the phone for a moment then
pick it up again.

PLAYING MESSAGES

When you have messages, the red
light on the
PLAY
button blinks. If you
have four messages or less, the light
blinks once for each message stored.
(If you have two messages, the light
blinks twice followed by a pause, then
blinks twice more, and so on.) If you
have more than four messages, the
VOL-
light blinks continuously.
To play the messages, press
The answering system beeps, re-
winds, then plays the messages.

onds, press
back, press
Notes:
• If you do not restart playback
within 60 seconds, the tape fast-
forwards to the end of the last
incoming message, as though
playback was never started.

paused, the tape immediately
fast-forwards to the end of the last
incoming
answers the call.
• After you play back all the mes-
sages,
beeps twice, rewinds to the begin-
ning, and resets to answer calls.
