Recording Your Announcement
Before using this answering system, you should
record the announcement (up to 3 minutes long)
that callers will hear when the system answers
a call. If you choose not to record an announce-
ment, the system answers with a prerecorded
announcement: "Hello. Please leave a
message after the tone."
1 Press and release g. The Message
Window displays CH.
2 Press and release A. The system
beeps. Speak toward the microphone
normally, from about 9 inches away.
While you are recording, the Message
Window displays the elapsed time of
your recording.
3 Press S when you are finished. The
system automatically plays back your
announcement.
To review your announcement, press and
release A.
Turning the System On/Off
Use O to turn the system on and off. When
the system is off, the Message Window is blank.
Volume Control
Use V button to adjust the volume of the
system's speaker. Press the top arrow to
increase volume. Press the bottom arrow to
decrease volume.
Answering Calls
When the system answers a call, the caller hears
the announcement you recorded, followed by a
beep. After the beep, the system begins record-
ing your caller's message. A caller can leave a
message up to 3 minutes long. If the message
is longer than 3 minutes, or if the caller is silent
for more than 7 seconds, or if the system runs
out of memory, the system beeps once and
hangs up.
Frequent callers can skip over your announce-
ment by pressing #.
Ring Select/Toll Saver
Use the RING SELECT switch on the right
side of the system to select how many times
the line will ring before the system answers a
call. Set to 2 for two rings, set to 4 for four
rings, or set to TS for Toll Saver. When you set
the system to TS, the system answers after 4
rings when you have no new messages, and af-
ter 2 rings when you have new messages.
Message Window
The Message Window displays the number of
messages that have been recorded. If the
Message Window displays F, then the memory
is full and you'll need to delete messages
before new ones can be recorded.
PLAY Light
The PLAY Light blinks when you have new
messages, and remains steady when you have
messages in memory that you've already
played. The PLAY Light is off when there are
no messages in memory.
Call Screening/Intercept
Set the system to answer calls, and set the volume
control so you can hear the caller's message.
If you decide to take the call, lift the handset of
any telephone on the same line. The system
stops recording and resets to answer calls.
Listening to Your Messages
As the system plays back messages, the
Message Window displays the number of the
message playing. Before playing each message,
the system announces the day and time the
message was received. After playing the last
message, the system announces "End of
messages."
Play all messages — Press and release
P. If you have no messages, the system
announces "No messages."
Play new messages only — Hold down
P for about 2 seconds, until the system
begins playing. If you have no new
messages, the system announces "No new
messages."
Repeat entire message — Press and
release ?.
Repeat part of message — Hold down
? for a few seconds, then release
it to resume playing. The system beeps
while the button is held down.
