SELECTING THE OUTGOING MESSAGE
The system has two prerecorded outgoing messages. One asks the caller to leave a message: “Hello, no one is available to take your call. Please leave a message after the tone.” The system uses this message when the recording time is set to 1 or 4 (see "Setting the Record Time").
The other is simply an announcement and does not let the caller leave a message: “Hello, no one is available to take your call. Please call again.” The system uses this message when the recording time is set to Announce Only.
You can also record your own message (see “Recording/Deleting an Outgoing Message”). When you record your own outgoing message, the system uses it for all recording time settings (1, 4, and Announce Only).
To switch between your outgoing message and the system’s prerecorded message, press MENU once to enter the outgoing message setting mode. Then press
or :/REPEAT until the current message starts to play. While the message is playing, press SKIP/; or :/REPEAT until the desired message starts to play. The system switches to the other message and plays it.
