NSWERER OPERATION
TURNING THE ANSWERER ON AND OFF
Open the door on the front of the unit and press the ANSWER ON/OFF button to turn the answerer on (so that it answers phone calls). The answering machine normally answers on the fifth ring, unless you have saved messages. If you have saved messages, the machine answers on the second ring.
MESSAGE PLAYBACK
To hear messages left on your answering machine, press the PLAY/STOP button. The tape rewinds and begins playing all messages. When all messages have been played, the machine automatically rewinds the tape and is ready for additional incoming messages. New messages will record over the old messages unless you use the save feature (see "Saving Messages" section).
NOTE: There is no time limit for incoming messages. A caller can leave a message that is the length of the tape. The tape provided holds 15 minutes of recording time on each side, including the outgoing announcement.
SAVING MESSAGES
Press MESSAGE SAVE if you want to save all messages. The answering machine will save those messages on the tape and begin recording new messages after the old messages you have saved.
Note: The MESSAGE SAVE key can be pressed any time during or after message playback.
