RECORDING INCOMING MESSAGES
The TAD can record an incoming mes- sage of up to 60 seconds. If a recording reaches 55 seconds, the TAD beeps once to notify the caller that time will be up soon. If the recording reaches 60 seconds, the TAD beeps three times, then disconnects.
The TAD automatically stops and hangs up if the caller is silent more than 8 sec- onds.
SCREENING CALLS
Your TAD lets you listen as callers leave messages. If you want to speak to a call- er, pick up any phone on the same line and begin speaking. The TAD detects when you pick up the phone and auto- matically resets to answer the next call.
Note: If you pick up the phone exactly when the TAD answers, you might need to press STOP to stop the TAD.
PLAYING MESSAGES
If there are new messages, the display flashes until those messages have been
12
played. The display shows the total number of messages.
To play all the messages, press PLAY. Or, to play only the new messages, hold down PLAY. The TAD announces the number of messages.
Note: If you hold down PLAY when there are no new messages stored, the TAD says, “No message.”
Before playing each message, the TAD announces the message number and the day and time it was recorded. After all messages play, the TAD says, “End of message(s)” and saves all the mes- sages.
