INSTALLATION

To Install Three AAA Batteries

Three AAA batteries (not included) are required
to maintain your personalized greeting and
recorded messages during a power failure. If
there is a power failure and the batteries are not
installed, both your personalized greeting and
recorded messages will be lost.
1.

Using a small Philips type screwdriver,
remove the screw located in the battery
compartment on the bottom of the base and
lift the battery compartment door.

2.

Install three AAA batteries.

3.

Replace battery compartment door, and
replace screw.

Note: 

Install replacement batteries once a year

to insure proper operation of the power failure
protection feature.

The batteries status are indicated by the BATT.
LOW indicator. If three fresh batteries are
installed, the LED indicator stays off

.

If the batteries

are low/not installed, the indicator will flash.

Connect the AC adaptor into the back of the unit.
Plug the other end into the AC wall power outlet.

To Connect the Telephone Line

Plug the telephone line cord (connected to
the back of the unit) into the modular outlet
in your telephone wall jack.

If you are connecting this unit to an extension
telephone, plug one end of the extension
telephone line cord to the extension line jack
(located on back of unit). Plug the other end

RECORDING YOUR
GREETING

There are approximately 15 minutes of total
recording time shared by your greeting and
incoming messages.
Your system comes with a prerecorded outgoing
greeting: “Hello, please leave your message after
the beep.”

To Record Your Greeting

1.

Press and hold the GREETING button.

Note: 

You have a maximum of 30 seconds

to record your outgoing greeting.

2.

After you hear one beep, speak clearly
towards the built in microphone (in the
speaker holes).

3.

When finished, release the GREETING
button.

4.

The unit will beep once and play back your
recorded greeting. The message LEDs will
be lit solid to indicate the unit is in Answer
On mode.

Notes:

The unit has two personalized mailboxes. You
have an option to have callers leave
messages in either of the two mailboxes. If
you want the caller to leave a message in a
particular mailbox, your greeting should
instruct the callers to press either the “1#” or
“2#” button before their message recording.
If the caller doesn’t press a key, presses a
key other than “1#” or “2#”, or waits longer
than 3 seconds before pressing a key, the
caller’s message will be automatically
recorded in Mailbox 1.

If the unit beeps while recording, you have
exceeded the 30 seconds time limit. Record
a shorter greeting, by repeating the steps
above.

To Check the Greeting

1.

To check the greeting, press and release the
GREETING button quickly.

2.

Your outgoing greeting will be played back
to you, and then your system will reset to
answer incoming calls.

Use the digital VOLUME Control on the side of
your unit to set the volume to the desired sound
level.
