Formatting Digital Memory
When you connect the unit to an electrical outlet, the system automatically begins formatting digital
memory. This takes about 30 seconds.
While the system is formatting memory, the Message Indicator Light flashes on and off. The Message
Window begins to count down from 31 to 0. You cannot use any system features while the formatting
routine is in progress.
When the formatting of the unit's memory is completed, the Message Indicator Light stops flashing (but
remains on) and the Message Window shows CL. The CL display blinks to indicate that you need to set the
clock.
Note: If you did not install a battery, or if the battery is low on power or installed incorrectly, the system
alternates between the usual display and the message Lo. You should install a battery so that there is
backup power to save messages in the event of a power failure.
System Reset
If the system does not record messages when memory is available, or otherwise malfunctions, press RESET.
(The RESET button is on the right side of the unit and is recessed to prevent your pressing it accidentally.)
