About Mailboxes

This answering system has three voice mailboxes. Callers using a touch tone phone can select the mailbox in which their messages will be recorded by press- ing 1, 2 or 3. If the caller does not select a specific mailbox, their message will be recorded in Mailbox 1.

About Announcements

•You can record two different announcements — one for normal answering and one for when you’ve set the system to play an announcement only.

•Use normal answering when you want the system to record callers’ mes- sages. Use Announce Only when you want to give information to callers with- out accepting messages.

•If you choose not to record an announcement, the system answers with a pre- recorded announcement.

•The normal answering pre-recorded announcement says: “Hello. I’m unable

to answer your call right now. Please leave your name, number and a mes- sage after the tone.” The Announce Only pre-recorded announcement says: “Hello, I’m unable to answer your call right now. Please call again. Thank you.”

•By setting Announce Only to ON or OFF, you decide which announcement your callers will hear when the system answers a call (the system comes set for normal answering, with Announce Only turned OFF). See Set Announce Only, located in the Feature Summary chart later in this section, to change your announcement selection.
