Message playback

To listen to messages

You can use the handset or the telephone base to play messages. If there
are new messages, the system plays back only the new messages (oldest
first). If there are no new messages, the system plays back all old messages
(oldest first).
When playback begins, the total number of messages is announced. Before
each message, you hear the day and time it was received. After the last
message, you hear "End of messages." If the system has less than three
minutes of recording time left, you hear the remaining time. If the memory of
the answering system is full, you hear "Memory is full."
notes:
• If the date and time is not set when a message is recorded, the system announces, "Time and
date not set" before the message is played. To set the date and time, see Set date/time on
page 13.
