TAD OPERATION

SETTING THE TAD TO

ANSWER CALLS

The TAD-732 is ready to answer and
record calls with the prerecorded outgo-
ing message as soon as you connect it
to AC power. To record your own outgo-
ing message, see “Recording an Outgo-
ing Message.”
To turn off the TAD so it does not an-
swer calls, press ANSWER on the base,
or press REMOTE, CHANGE ( ) then AN-
SWER ( ) on the handset. The TAD an-
nounces “Answer off” and the message
counter display clears.
To turn on the TAD, press ANSWER on
the base, or press REMOTE, CHANGE
()
then ANSWER ()
on the handset.
The TAD announces “Answer on” and
the message counter shows the number
of recorded messages.
Note: When you turn on/off the TAD
with the handset, you must press RE-
MOTE again after the handset announc-
es “Answer on” or “Answer off” so the
message counter shows the answer on/
off status.

USING THE MAILBOXES

The TAD-732 has a general message
center and two user mailboxes. It is pre-
set to record messages in the message
center, but a caller can record a mes-
sage for mailbox 1 by pressing then 1,
or for mailbox 2 by pressing then 2 af-
ter the outgoing message plays over
within 6 seconds. If the caller presses
then 1 or 2 after the outgoing message
plays over for more than 6 seconds, the
TAD-732 records message into both
message center and the selected mail-
box.
Be sure your outgoing message tells the
caller how to record a message for the
desired mailbox.

RECORDING AN

OUTGOING MESSAGE

The TAD-732’s prerecorded outgoing
message says, “Hello, please leave a
message after the tone.” You can also
record your own outgoing message up
to 60 seconds long for the caller to hear
when the TAD answers a call.
Hint: Do not tell callers that you are not
home. Instead, say that you cannot
come to the phone right now.
Notes:
• If you set the TAD to announce-only,
be sure to state that the caller can-
not leave a message.
