RECORDING THE
OUTGOING MESSAGE
Before you can set the TAD to answer
calls, you must record the outgoing mes-
sage (OGM) the caller hears when the
TAD answers a call.
Note: The maximum outgoing message
length is 30 seconds.
Since the TAD can receive and save
messages for up to four different users,
the outgoing announcement should ex-
plain how to leave a message for a par-
ticular person. For example:
“You have reached the Jones resi-
dence. We are unable to come to the
phone right now, but you may press:
1
to leave a message for John,
2
to leave
a message for Mary,
3
to leave a mes-
sage for Susan,
4
to leave a message
for Helen, or you can wait until after the
beep to leave a message for John.
Please include your name and phone
number in your message.”
Important: Do not tell callers that you
are not home. Instead, say that you can-
not come to the phone right now.
Follow these steps to record your outgo-
ing announcement.
1. Press and hold down
ANN
. The
TAD beeps.
Note: When memory is full, the
TAD announces, “Memory is full,”
and you cannot record the outgoing
message. You must delete some
messages before you can record
the outgoing message (see “Delet-
ing Messages”).
