VOICE-ACTIVATED COMMANDS

When a touch tone telephone is not avail- able, you can still call your system to listen to your messages. You use your voice to enter the Remote Access Code, to repeat messages, and to delete messages.

Speak in response to the prompts presented by the system as described below. You must speak quickly and loudly in order for the system to detect your voice.

The system does not recognize the actual words you are saying; it responds to any sufficiently intense auditory signal. For example, instead of “Enter code,” you can substitute any phrase or word that is easy for you to remember.

1 Dial your telephone number, listen for the announcement, and then remain silent after the beep.

NOTE: If the system answers after 10 rings (because it is off or the memory is full), remain silent after the two-beep signal.

2 After about ten seconds, the system prompts “Enter remote access code.” Immediately respond by saying “Enter code.”

3You then hear “First digit,” followed by “Enter zero,” “Enter four,” “Enter five,” and so forth. When you hear the first digit of the Remote Access Code, immediately respond by saying “Enter code.”

For example, if your Remote Access Code is 53, wait to hear “Enter five,” then say “Enter code.”

4You then hear “Second digit,” followed by “Enter zero,” “Enter one,” “Enter two,” and so forth. When you hear the second digit of the Remote Access Code, say “Enter code.”

5If you enter the code correctly, the system announces how many messages have been received, and begins playing all messages recorded on both lines.

If no messages have been received, the system disconnects the call.

6At the end of each message, the system prompts “Repeat message?” To hear the message again, say “Repeat message.” If you remain silent, the system plays the next message. You can repeat each message once.

7After the last message plays, the system announces “End of messages” followed by the prompt “Replay messages?”

To replay all of the messages, say “Replay messages.” If you remain silent, the system prompts “Delete all messages?”

8To delete all of the messages, say “Delete messages.” The system then repeats the “Delete all messages?” prompt to confirm your choice.

To confirm the delete, say “Delete messages.” The system announces “Messages deleted” and disconnects the call.

If you remain silent after the “Delete all messages?” prompt, the system disconnects the call and the messages are not deleted.

If you do not enter the correct

Remote Access Code

If you enter an incorrect Remote Access Code, the system beeps five times and be- gins the sequence of prompts again. If you enter the wrong code on the second try, the system disconnects the call.

If you do not respond to the correct digit while entering the Remote Access Code (or if the system fails to detect your response), you can remain silent after you hear the “Enter nine” prompt. The system beeps five times and begins the sequence of prompts again. If you do not respond cor- rectly during the second sequence of prompts, the system disconnects the call.
