check battery and let get a full charge FULL

I'm not sure what word or expression "St." specifically signifies, but I think it's only there when you initially "start" or "set up" the machine. I've not seen it there again after I began actually using the answerer.

I think what you are saying is actually St. It just means you need to set the time on the answering machine. We got stuck on this too.

The day and time need to be reset. The phone has day, hour, and minute buttons on the back. Hold the button down to change to the correct setting and it should solve your problem. You can also go to www.ge.com/phones and pull up a copy of the instruction manual.

Good Luck!
