length of the announcement in seconds.

5.

 

Speak towards the microphone (located under the PLAY button) in a normal tone of voice.

6.

 

Release ANNC when you finish.
The unit beeps to indicate that it is no longer recording and then plays back your announcement
automatically.  (Adjust the VOLUME control to a comfortable listening level.)

 

If you are not satisfied with the announcement, repeat Steps 4 through 6.

 

If the announcement did not record successfully, the Message Window displays NO

5.

 

Release ANNC when you finish.

 

The system automatically plays back your announcement through the handset.

If you are satisfied with the announcement, hang up.  If you are not satisfied, repeat Steps 2 through 4
to record a new announcement.

Using the Pre-recorded Announcement

The system has a pre-recorded announcement that uses the built-in voice.  (This is the same voice that
announces the date and time.)
The pre-recorded announcement is: “Hello.  Please leave a message after the tone.”

NOTE: The pre-recorded announcement can only be used as Announcement A or B.  There is no pre-
recorded announcement for AO (Announcement Only).

To use the pre-recorded announcement:
1.

 

Move the ANNC SELECT switch to A or B.
