If you do not have an answering system (answering machine) on the phone, you need to purchase a answering machine or contact your telephone service provider to get Voice Mail service from them. (Most charge $3-5 per month for voice mail.) The provider will tell you what number to call to set up a voice mail message and access messages.

I hope this helps.

(for most Uniden systems with the answering system, you need to turn it on and then access the system from the handset to set the out-going message and length of incoming messages allowed.)

If the system doesn't answer the call at all then you need to turn the answering system on. If it answers the call but does not record a message then you need to turn "Announce Only" off. Both of these are in the Answering System Menu options described on page 13 of the manual.

The Uniden D1660-2 isn't an answering machine. If you have a separate answering machine connected to your phone line, please consult its documentation. If you subscribe to a voicemail system offered by your phone company, please contact them for instructions on accessing their voicemail system.
If you need a D1660-2 manual, you may download a copy here.

Without knowing the model of your Uniden phone I can't give you a definite answer, but here are some possibilities.

If your system includes an answering machine, then it's telling you that there are new messages that you haven't heard.

If you've subscribed to a voicemail system offered by your telephone company, then your phone is telling you that you have unheard voicemail.

If you still have trouble, please repost your question, specifying the model of your Uniden phone.

Here are two screen capture from the manual to help you record your outgoing message.

You have to give priority to recieve call option.
or change time of automatic answer

Remote Operation
You can check, play, or delete messages, even record a new greeting message from a
remote location (when you are away from home, or from another room using a
handset). Additionally, you can turn on or off your answering system remotely.
Remote access away from home
You can operate your answering system from a remote location using any touchtone
telephone.
1) Call your telephone number and wait for the system to answer. If the answering
system is off, it will answer after about 10 rings and sounds a series of beeps.
2) During the greeting message (or a series of beeps when the answering system is
off), press 0 and enter your PIN code within 2 seconds (see "Setting a PIN Code"
on page 25).
3) The answering system announces the current time and the number of messages
stored in memory. You hear "To play incoming messages, press zero-two. For
help, press one-zero." You will hear a beep.
4) Enter a command within 15 seconds, each command there after must be entered
within 2 seconds. You may select a command from the following chart:
* For the Repeat a Message function, press 0 then 1 within about four seconds to
repeat the previous message, or press 0 then 1 after about four seconds to repeat
the current message.
**For the Memo Record and Greeting Message Record functions, the first time you
enter the corresponding command, the phone starts recording. If you want to
stop the recording, press 0 then 7, 8 or 5.
5) After the command has finished, you hear intermittent beeps indicating that the
system is in the command waiting mode. You may enter another command at this
time from the chart above.
6) When you are finished, hang up to exit the system. The answering system
automatically returns to standby.
