Greeting Message

You can record a personal greeting message of up to 2 minutes. If you do not
record your own message, one of two pre-recorded greetings will be played for
callers (p. 24).
The total recording time of all messages (greeting, incoming and memo) is
about 16 minutes. We recommend you record a brief greeting message in
order to leave more time for recording new messages.
• You can use the enhanced recording mode for clearer sound, if necessary (p. 26).
