Operating The Answering Machine - Sharp FO-880 Operation Manual

Operating the Answering Machine

Activating the answering machine
Activate the answering machine before you go out as follows:
Press the RECEPTION MODE key
until the arrow in the display points to
A.M..
The outgoing message will play
(you can stop playback by pressing
the STOP key).
It will not be possible to set the
reception mode to A.M. if a general
outgoing message has not been
recorded.
When the reception mode is set to A.M., the FO-880 will answer
incoming calls after two rings if it has received at least one incoming
message, or after four rings if no messages have been received. (For
more information, see Toll Saver in Remote Operations in this
chapter.)
Note: If the memory is full from messages previously recorded, MEMORY
IS FULL will appear in the display. To set the reception mode to A.M., you
must first erase some or all of the stored messages.
Note: In A.M. mode, the machine will automatically switch to fax
reception if it detects a period of silence longer than six seconds after
answering a call. For this reason, if a caller pauses for this length of time
while leaving a message, they will be cut off.
