Answering System Operation

Announcement Only mode

In announce only mode, callers hear an announcement but cannot leave messages.This option can be used, for example, to notify callers that you will be away for an extended period and request that they call back after a certain date.

Announcement Only on or off

Press MENU repeatedly until you hear “Announcement only, record no messages.To change the setting press CHANGE.” Then press CHANGE until you hear the option you want (on or off). Press PLAY/STOP to store your selection and exit, or press MENU again to modify other features (see page 35).

To record your outgoing announcement

When announce only is turned on, calls are answered with a pre-recorded announcement that says “We’re sorry, messages to this number cannot be accepted.” You can use this announcement, or replace it with a recording of your own voice.

After turning on the announce only feature, follow the steps on page 33 to record your announcement. Callers will hear this announcement only when the announce only feature is turned on. Otherwise they will hear the standard announcement asking them to leave a message.
