BT Diverse 5450 ~ 6th Edition ~ 29th August ’03 ~ 5199

ANSWERING MACHINE

You choose to have up to 3 individual mailboxes for messages. If you do, you will need to record an appropriate outgoing message. For example, ‘Hello, your call cannot be taken at the moment. To leave a message for John, press 1, for Suzy press 2, for Alan press 3 and then speak after the tone’.

When the answering machine takes a call, your BT Diverse 5450 will play your Answer and Record message and then your caller can leave a message.

Answer Only

In Answer Only mode, there is no pre-recorded announcement so you must record your own, remembering to tell your caller that they will not be able to leave a message. See, ‘To record your own outgoing message’, below.

When the answering machine takes a call, your BT Diverse 5450 will play your Answer Only announcement but will not allow your caller to leave a message.
