Answering System Operation

Outgoing announcements

Outgoing announcements are the messages callers hear when calls are answered by the answering system.

The phone is pre-programmed with an announcement that answers calls with “Hello. Please leave a message after the tone.” You can use this announcement, or replace it with a recording of your own voice.

To record your outgoing announcement

Press MENU until you hear “Change announcement.” Then press RECORD and begin speaking after you hear “Now recording.” Speak facing the telephone base from about 9 inches away.

Elapsed time (in seconds) will be shown in the message window as you record. You can record an announce- ment up to 90 seconds long. Announcements less than 3 seconds long will not be recorded.

To delete your outgoing announcement

Press MENU until you hear “Change announcement,” then press PLAY/STOP to begin playback. Press DELETE during playback to delete your announcement.

When your announcement is deleted, calls will be answered with the pre-programmed announcement described above.
