SAFETY INFORMATION
Read the safety instructions before first use of this phone.
• Use only the batteries supplied with this telephone.
• Do not use any mains adapter other than the one provided otherwise
you may permanently damage your phone.
• Do not use the phone in damp humid conditions such as a bathroom.
Do not expose the phone or batteries to water or fire.
• Do not dispose of used batteries with household waste or by burning.
• Do not use the handset in an explosive hazard area.
• To prevent electric shock, never try to open the base or handset
enclosure.
• Avoid metallic contact (e.g. metal clips, keys) between the battery
contacts and charging conductors.
• There is a slight chance that your phone could be damaged by an
electrical storm. It is recommended that you unplug your phone from
the mains supply and telephone socket during a storm.
Because the phone works by sending radio signals between base station
and handset, wearers of hearing aids may experience interference in the
form of a humming noise.
We advise that this phone should not be used near intensive care medical
equipment or by persons with pacemakers.
Your phone can interfere with electrical equipment such as answering
machines, TV and radio sets, clock radios and computers if placed too
close. It is recommended that you position the base unit at least one
meter from such appliances.

Getting started
This answering machine is ready to use within a few seconds from power
up.
This answering machine contains a 7-segment LCD for displaying
notification and confirmation messages.

functionality of normal phone operations, such as making outgoing
calls or receiving incoming calls.
20
To turn the answering machine on/off,
1. Press during standby mode. The 7-segment LCD displays Onif the
answering machine is activated or Ofif the answering machine is
deactivated.
The 7-segment LCD will be on when the answering machine is turned on.
When the answering machine is on, it will answer the call after a certain
number of rings depending on the ring delay setting (See page 25 for
adjusting the ring delay setting). After answering the call, the answering
machine will play the outgoing message (OGM) and record an incoming
message (ICM) if any.
When the answering machine is off, it will not answer the incoming calls.
However, if the incoming call continues to ring, it will pick up the call after

caller does not enter the security PIN in 8 seconds, the call will be
dropped. If you want to turn on the answering machine now, press 8
during remote access.
NOTE: The answering machine can only record an incoming
message when there is enough memory. Memory is full when there

segment LCD will blink the symbol FU.
Outgoing messages (OGM)

“Hello, your call cannot be taken at the moment, so please leave your
message after the tone.”
When you record your own OGM, it will be used when the answering
machine answers the call. If your own OGM is deleted, the default OGM
will be restored automatically.
21
When memory is full, no incoming message will be recorded. The
answering machine will announce the following outgoing message (OGM)
and release the line.
“Hello, we’re sorry your call cannot be taken at the moment, and you
cannot leave a message, so please call later.”
Recording an OGM
