Using Special Features

Using Text-To-Speech

With the Text To Speech (TTS) feature, your phone can announce phone numbers or names in several different situations.

When you... (from standby)

The phone announces...

 

 

receive a call

the caller's name (if sent by a CID service)

 

 

dial a number

the phone number you dialed

 

 

open the phonebook

the name of the entry you are looking at

 

 

You have to turn on TTS separately for each station (see p. 10).

To change the volume of CID announcements, change the ringer volume.  To change the volume for all other TTS features, change the speaker volume.
