PLAYING MESSAGES

After a new message is recorded, the TAD’s message counter window shows the total number of messages stored, and the REMOTE indicator on the hand- set flashes. The message counter dis- play flashes if there are new messages in the message center. If new messages have been recorded in a user mailbox, the indicator for that mailbox flashes. The message counter display and mail- box indicators light steadily if they con- tain only messages that have been reviewed.

Press the desired mailbox or the mes- sage center button on the base, or press REMOTE then the desired button on the handset. The TAD announces the total number of messages in the selected mailbox or the message center. Before playing each message, the TAD tells you the message’s number and the day and time the message was recorded. If no messages are recorded, the TAD says “You have no messages.”

Notes:

If you did not set the day and time, the TAD only announces the num- ber of messages recorded and each message’s number.

When you play back messages us- ing the handset, the message num- ber does not appear on the display.

After all messages play, the TAD says, “End of messages.”
