ANSWERING SYSTEM SETUP
Announce Only Mode
You can choose whether the answering system will signal callers and record
their message (Normal Announce mode, described above) or play an
announcement for callers and then hang up (Announce Only mode). The system
lets you record up to two different announcements, one for Normal Announce
mode, and one for Announce Only mode. For example:
“You’ve reached the Meadowlark Nursery. We’re sorry we cannot
take your call. Please call back tomorrow between 9 AM and 5 PM.”
If you choose not to record an announcement for Announce Only, the system
answers with the prerecorded announcement: “Hello. I’m unable to answer
your call right now. Please call again. Thank you.”
NOTE: In the Announce Only mode, callers will hear the outgoing
announcement twice.
Selecting Your Announcement
1 Press and release U five times, until you hear “Set Announce Only.”
2 Press and release S. The system prompts with “On” or “Off.”
Press and release S until you hear your choice. Select Off if you
want callers to be able to leave a message.

— OR —
Press and release Y to exit.
