Answering system
The answering system can answer and 
record calls for you when you are 
unavailable to answer the phone.
You can also set the unit to play a 
greeting message but not to record 
caller messages. Select “Greeting 
only” as the recording time setting 
(page 37).
Important:
LOnly 1 person can access the 
answering system (listen to 
messages, record a greeting 
message, etc.) at a time.
LWhen callers leave messages, the 
unit records the day and time of each 
message. Make sure the date and 
time have been correctly set (page 
16).
Memory capacity
The total recording capacity (including 
your greeting message) is about 12 
minutes. A maximum of 64 messages 
can be recorded.
Note:
LIf message memory becomes full, the 
ANSWER ON indicator on the base 
unit flashes rapidly.
LWhen the message memory becomes 
full:
– If you use the pre-recorded greeting 
message, the unit automatically 
switches to another pre-recorded 
greeting message asking callers to 
call again later.
– If you recorded your own greeting 
message, the same message is still 
announced to callers even though 
their messages are not recorded.

answering system.
LWhen the answering system is turned

Voice mail service
Voice mail is an automatic answering 
service offered by your service 
provider/telephone company. After you 
subscribe to this service, your service 
provider/telephone company’s voice 
mail system answers calls for you when 
you are unavailable to answer the phone 
or when your line is busy. Messages are 
recorded by your service 
provider/telephone company, not your 
telephone. Please contact your service 
provider/telephone company for details 
of this service.
Important:
LTo use the voice mail service provided 
by your service provider/telephone 
company rather than the unit’s 
answering system, turn off the 
answering system (page 32). For 
details, see page 36. 
(KX-TG6322/KX-TG6323/
KX-TG6324)
Storing the voice mail (VM) 
access number
In order to listen to your voice mail 
messages, you must dial your service 
provider/telephone company’s voice 
mail access number. Once you have 
stored your voice mail access number, 
you can dial it automatically (page 39).
1{MENU} i {#}{3}{3}{1}

max.). i {Save} i {OFF}
Note:
LWhen storing your voice mail access 
number and your mailbox password,

Voice mail (VM) tone detection
Your service provider/telephone 
company sends special signals 
(sometimes called “voice mail tones” or 
“stutter tones”) to the unit to let you know 
you have new voice mail messages. If 
you hear a series of dial tones followed 
by a continuous dial tone after you press 
{C}, you have new voice mail 
messages. Minutes after you hang up a 
call or after the phone stops ringing, your 
unit checks the phone line to see if new 
voice mail messages have been 
recorded.
Turn this feature off when:
– You do not subscribe to voice mail 
service.
– Your service provider/telephone 
company does not send voice mail 
tones.
– Your phone is connected to a PBX.
If you are not sure which setting is 
required, contact your service 
provider/telephone company.
