Notes:

If you make an error, the TAD beeps rapidly 3 times. Repeat Steps 1–7.

Press each button within 30 sec- onds of the previous button press. If you take longer, the setting proce- dure is canceled automatically.

When you have an incoming call or paging from the base while setting the day and time, the setting proce- dure is canceled.

If there is a power failure, PF flashes on the digital display when power returns. Reset the day and time.

SELECTING AN OUTGOING MESSAGE

The TAD has two prerecorded messag- es. One asks the caller to leave a mes- sage (“Hello, no one is available to take your call. Please leave your message af- ter the tone.”), the other is an announce- ment and does not let the caller leave a message (“Hello, no one is available to take your call.”). You can also record your own message (see “Recording an Outgoing Message”).

Use the REC TIME switch to select which message you want. When you set it to either 1 or 4 (minutes), the normal mes- sage is selected and the TAD records each incoming message for 1 or 4 min- utes. When you set it to ANS. ONLY, the announce-only message is selected.

RECORDING AN OUTGOING MESSAGE

You can record your own message up to 1 minute long for the caller to hear when the TAD answers a call. You can use ei- ther the base or the handset to record the message.

Hints:

Do not tell callers that you are not home. Instead, say that you cannot come to the phone right now.

When you record an announce- ment-only message, be sure that the caller understands he or she cannot leave a message.

Follow these steps to record your outgo- ing message.

1.Hold down OGM REC on the base for about 2 seconds until a beep sounds. The digital display begins counting up by second (00 - 01 - 02 - - - -). Then speak your outgoing message into the base.
