what model of answering machine?...that i need to know!

machine is speaking Spanish, need back to English.
hotrock, AZ

You can go to the menu like you always do, and since spanish is similar to english you can use parts of the forgien word to switch back to english. (or if you still remember the options in the menu, you could just scroll down as normal).

To resolve this issue hold down the skip button for 2-3 seconds and it will change back to English.
