Announce only mode

In announce only mode, callers can hear an announcement but cannot leave messages. This option is useful, for example, to notify callers that you will be away for an extended period and request that they call back after a certain date.

To turn announce only on or off

Press and hold TAS/SETUP until you hear "Selected announcement is A. To select a different announce-

ment, press SKIP or REPEAT." Then press SKIP or REPEAT until you hear the option you want:

A: Callers hear current outgoing announcement and can leave messages.

Announce only: Callers hear current outgoing announcement and cannot leave messages.

Press PLAY/STOP to save your selection and exit, or press TAS/SETUP again to change other features (pages 24-25).

To record your outgoing announcement

After turning on the announce only feature, see page 22 to record your announcement.

If you do not record an announcement, incoming calls will be answered after 10 rings, but callers will hear "No announcement" and beep twice, then “The machine will now hang up” after about 15 seconds, and you will not be able to leave a mes- sage.
