Recording Your
Announcement
Before using this answering system, you
need to record the announcement (up to
30 seconds long) that callers will hear
when the system answers a call. Your
announcement should tell callers that
they will hear a series of beeps, or one long
beep, before the system begins recording
the message.
1 Prepare an announcement.
For example: Hello. I can’t come to
the phone right now. Please leave
your name, telephone number, and
short message after you hear a series
of beeps or one long beep. I will
return your call as soon as I can.
2 Press and release g, located
under the microcassette cover.
3 Press and release A and
wait for the beep.
4 After the beep, speak toward the front
of the unit, from about 9 inches away.
5 Press and release P when
you are finished. The tape resets
automatically and plays the
announcement.
To review your announcement — Press
and release A, located under the
microcassette cover.
