Operating the answering machine using the voice menu

The language in which the greetings and the voice menu are played depends on the language set in the FRITZ!Box user interface. If German is selected, greetings and voice messages are played in German. With all other languages, greetings and voice messages are played in English.

Note:All instructions on configuration and settings given in this guide refer to the latest FRITZ!OS for the FRITZ!Box.

1 Operating an answering machine

Pick up the handset of a telephone connected to the FRITZ!Box.
Enter the internal number of the answering machine to access the voice menu, for example **600.
Note:You can find the answering machine's internal number under "Telephone Book > Internal Numbers" in the FRITZ!Box user interface.
Follow the voice menu prompts or press a key to operate the answering machine.
