Call intercept

When a caller is leaving a message on your answering system, you can stop

recording and talk to the caller by pressing or

the handset.

Temporarily turn off the message alert tone

If the message alert tone is turned on, the telephone base beeps every ten
seconds when there are new messages. Pressing any telephone base key
(except FIND HS) temporarily silences the message alert tone.
If you press X/DELETE when in idle mode to temporarily turn off the message
alert tone, there is a voice prompt directing you to press X/DELETE again
to delete all old messages. The message alert tone is temporarily off. Only
press X/DELETE a second time if you wish to erase all old messages in your
answering system.
The message alert tone resumes when you receive another message.
