a cassette are not required.

Your answering device is factory-programmed with a recorded outgoing message and
is already activated in both function 31 and function 32. You have the option of
switching off the answering device in function 31. In function 32 your built-in
answering device is always activated.

After a preset number of rings the answering device is automatically switched on. The caller will then hear the first
outgoing message followed by a short beep. The device will then switch to record and the caller can leave a message. At
the end of the recording time the caller will hear the closing message. The device then switches itself off. You can adjust
the recording time with function 51.
Recording and playing back your outgoing message
Your answering device is supplied with a pre-recorded outgoing message, which will play when the answering device is
activated and will ask the caller to leave a message. You can of course record your own message, e.g.
“Hello, this is Berger and Company. We are sorry there is nobody available to take your call at present, but if you leave
your name and telephone number, we will get back to you as soon as possible. Please speak after the tone. If you want to
send a fax, press START.”
When the programmed recording time has lapsed the caller will hear a closing message, e.g.:
“Thank you for calling. Goodbye.”
The answering device then switches itself off. Read the following procedure through completely and then record your
outgoing messages. It is advisable to write your messages down first.
RECORD
Press the RECORD key for at least two seconds.
