REVIEWING THE OUTGOING ANNOUNCEMENT

You can review the outgoing announcement by pressing and quickly releasing the ANNOUNCEMENT button.

NOTE: You can stop the outgoing announcement by pressing STOP while the announcement is playing.

USING THE DEFAULT ANNOUNCEMENT

Your answering system is equipped with a default announcement that says "Please leave your message after the tone." This announcement serves as the default announcement each time the answering system loses power and is completely reset.

If you installed a battery, your answerer does not default to this announcement when the answerer loses power because your personalized outgoing announcement is retained in memory by the battery power. To set the default announcement manually; press the ANNOUNCEMENT button and release within one second after the unit beeps.
