You can record another announce- ment for the caller to hear when the TAD answers a call. The announce- ment can be up to 1 minute long.
Important Hints:
•We recommend you write down your announcement before recording it. If you plan to record callers’ messages, ask for the caller’s name, phone number, and message.
•Do not tell callers that you are not home. Instead, say that you can- not come to the phone right now.
•The TAD can receive and save messages for up to four different users. If you set the TAD to do this (see “Using the Mailbox Feature”), your outgoing announcement should explain how to leave a message for a particular person.
