Answering System

Answering system
Available for:
KX-TG6561
The answering system can answer and
record calls for you when you are
unavailable to answer the phone.
You can also set the unit to play a
greeting message but not to record
caller messages by selecting
"Greeting Only" as the recording
time setting (page 37).
Important:
L When callers leave messages, the
unit records the day and time of each
message. Make sure the date and
time have been set correctly (page
13).
L Answering system announcements
are in English only.
Memory capacity (including
your greeting message)
The total recording capacity is about 20
minutes. A maximum of 64 messages
can be recorded.
Note:
L If message memory becomes full:
– "Messages Full" is shown on the
handset display.
– The answer on indicator on the
base unit flashes rapidly when the
answering system is turned on.
L When the message memory becomes
full:
– If you use the pre-recorded greeting
message, the unit automatically
switches to another pre-recorded
greeting message asking callers to
call again later.

message, the same message is still
32
announced to callers even though
their messages are not recorded.
