SELECTING THE
OUTGOING MESSAGE
The phone has two prerecorded outgo-
ing messages. One asks the caller to
leave a message: “Hello, no one is avail-
able to take your call. Please leave a
message after the tone.” The phone
uses this message when
REC TIME
is
set to
1
or
4
(see “Setting the Record
Time”).
The other is simply an announcement
and does not let the caller leave a mes-
sage: “Hello, no one is available to take
your call.” The phone uses this message
when
REC TIME
is set to
ANN
(an-
nouncement only).
You can also record your own message
(see “Recording/Deleting an Outgoing
Message”). When you record your own
outgoing message, the phone uses it for
all
REC TIME
settings.
To switch between your outgoing mes-
sage and the phone’s prerecorded mes-
sage, repeatedly press
MSG LINE
SELECT
until the line indicator for the
desired line lights in the message
counter window, then press
OGM
. When
the current message begins to play,
press
OGM
again. The phone switches
to the other message and plays it. The
display shows
P
for prerecorded mes-
sage or
U
for your own message.
RECORDING/DELETING
AN OUTGOING MESSAGE
You can record different messages for
each line. Press
MSG LINE SELECT
so
the line indicator for the desired line
lights in the message counter window.
Hold down
OGM
until the phone beeps
and the message counter window starts
counting. Then speak your outgoing
message (up to 30 seconds long) into
the built-in microphone on the bottom of
the base. You can see how long your
message is by watching the message
counter window.
When you finish your message, press
PLAY/STOP
or
OGM
. The phone plays
back your message.
To delete your outgoing message and
use the phone’s prerecorded messages,
hold down
OGM
until the phone beeps.
Then press
OGM
again within two sec-
onds.
