The Answering Machine
(continued)
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 MENU four times.
You hear “Record time” and the current recording time ([ ] 1 minute, [ ] 4
minutes, [ ] Announce only), and it is displayed on the base.
2 Press SKIP or REPEAT until the desired time appears.
3 Press SET/RINGER to select the new recording time. You hear a tone. The system
announces “Record time” and the new recording time.
▼ Announce only feature
The announce only feature plays a prerecorded outgoing message “Hello, no one is
available to take your call. Please call again.”, but 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
OGM when the outgoing message is played. If you want to use your own greeting,
you may want to change your greeting to omit the prompt “to leave a message”.
Refer to “Recording a personal outgoing message” (Greeting) on page 39.
Note
When using the Announce only feature, you may want to change your outgoing
message if the message prompts the caller to leave a message. The prerecorded
message changes automatically.
