The O2 answering machine records unanswered calls on the base when it
is activated. It can store up to 59 messages within the maximum recording
time of up to 25 minutes. Each message can be up to 3 minutes long. Your
personalised outgoing message (OGM) can be up to 3 minutes long.
You can operate your answering machine from:
• the handset.
• remotely, from another phone, see page 45.
Note
You will need to set the date and time (if you have not already) so that you will
know when each message was received, see page 32.
