After setting the Announce only feature, you may want to change your outgoing message not to prompt the caller to leave a message. However, the prerecorded message changes automatically.

Selecting the message Record Time

You have three record time options. The options “1 minute” or “4 minutes” set the duration for recording the incoming messages. “Announce only” answers the call with the preset greeting or your personal greeting but prevents the caller from leaving a message.

1)Press the menu/clock key four times in standby mode.

You hear “Record time” and the current recording time ([ ] 1 minute, [ ] 4 minutes, [ ] Announce only, No recording), and it is displayed on the base.

Then you hear the guidance for setting the record time.

2) Press the volume/select/ or volume/select/ key until the desired time appears.

3)Press the set/ringer key to select the new recording time. You hear a confirmation tone, then the announcement “Record time” and the new recording time is announced. After a few seconds, the system announces “To set message alert, press menu again”.

Announce only feature

The announce only feature plays a prerecorded outgoing message “Hello, no one is available to take your call. Please call again.”, and it will not allow the caller to leave a message. To set “Announce only”, follow the steps above.

To scroll between the prerecorded message or your own personal greeting, press the greeting key when the outgoing message is played. If you want to use your own greeting, or want to omit the prompt “to leave a message from your greeting”.

Refer to “Recording a personal outgoing message” (Greeting) on page 36.

Setting the Message Alert tone

Message Alert feature lets you know you have new messages by sounding a short beeping tone. If you set the Message Alert to On and when a new message is received, the alert tone will sound every 15 seconds.

1)Press the menu/clock key five times in standby mode.

You hear “Message alert” and the current setting ([ ] Off or [ ] On), and it is displayed on the base. Then you hear the guidance for setting the Message Alert.
