To play back your outgoing OGM 1 mes- sage at any time, press OGM 1. A1 ap- pears, the TAD beeps, and the outgoing message plays.

To play back your OGM 2 message at any time, press OGM 2, A2 appears, the TAD beeps, and the announcement-only message plays.

SETTING THE NUMBER OF RINGS

The ring select switch on the back of the TAD controls how long the TAD waits before it answers a call. Slide the switch to the appropriate position.

2 — The TAD answers after two rings.

4 — The TAD answers after four rings.

7 — The TAD answers after seven rings.

T.S. (Toll Saver) — If there are new mes- sages, the TAD answers after two rings. Otherwise, the TAD answers after four rings. This lets you avoid unnecessary charges when calling by long-distance to check your messages. If you hear more than two rings, you know you can hang up because the TAD has no new mes- sages.
