“Announcement only, record no messages. To change the setting press CHANGE.” Then press CHANGE until you hear the option you want (on or off).

To record your outgoing announcement

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