Directory

The 9516CW stores the numbers and names of up to 75 of your business associates, cli- ents, contacts, and friends in your Directory. You can dial these numbers by selecting them.

Names are sorted alphabetically starting with their first character. (If you want your Directory sorted by the last name, enter the last name first.) If you do not enter a name, the item is sorted by telephone number. The Directory items with only a telephone number are numerically sorted at the beginning of the Directory.

You also use the Directory to assign Personalized Greetings, Mailbox Greetings and Call Announcements (Voice Tags) to phone numbers.

A greeting is the message that callers hear when they are leaving a message on the 9516CW. These greetings can be personalized for a particular person or group of people stored in your Directory. (For more information on greetings in general, see Greetings on page 13.)

A mailbox is a storage place for messages. The 9516CW has 12 mailboxes. When some- one calls and their number matches a Directory item, the call is automatically routed to the mailbox assigned to it in the Directory. (For more information about mailboxes, see

Mailboxes on page 29 and Mailbox Greetings on page 30.)

A Call Announcement (Voice Tag) can be recorded for each person that you have entered into your Directory. This announcement is played through the handsfree speaker of the 9516CW when someone at that number calls so you know who is calling without looking at the telephone display. (For more information about Call Announce (Voice Tag), see

Call Announce (Voice Tag)

on page 22).

Note : To achieve the best sound quality for recorded greetings and Call Announcements, it is recommended t hat you record by speaking into the handset instead of the handsfree microphone.
