TAD OPERATION
You can use the base or the handset to
control the TAD. With the handset, you

fication number (PIN), select the outgo-
ing message,
record outgoing
messages, memos, or telephone con-
versation, turn the TAD on and off, play
messages, and delete a current mes-
sage. At the base, you can set the day
and time, set the number of rings before
the TAD answers an incoming call, se-
lect the outgoing message, set incoming

ing messages, memos, or telephone
conversation, turn the TAD on and off,
play and delete messages, and adjust
the TAD's volume.
Note:
While you are using the base to
control the TAD, you can still answer in-
coming calls with the handset or another
phone on the same telephone line.
