Announcements to Callers
Before using your answering system, you should record an announcement. This is what callers will hear
when the system answers a call.
You can record 3 different announcements on this system: A, B, and AO.
When your system is set to AO, Announce Only, it will answer calls and play the AO announcement, but it
will not record messages.
To use the system, you only need to record one announcement. However, if you record more than one, you
can then change the announcement without recording a new one.
To Record an Announcement
1.
Move ANNC SELECT, located at the back of the unit, to the announcement you want to record.
