When a caller enters the CBT code dur- ing the outgoing message, the TAD alerts you with a series of loud beeps for 35 seconds. To answer the call, pick up the handset. If you do not answer, the caller can leave a message after the outgoing message plays.
If you do not want to take the call, sim- ply let the TAD finish recording the call- er’s message.
If you decide to answer the call, pick up any phone on the same phone line as the TAD. The TAD stops recording and resets to answer the next call.
Note: If you pick up the phone just as the TAD answers, the TAD might not stop playing the outgoing message. If this happens, press STOP.
