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 60 seconds.
1. Hold down
ANNC
. The TAD beeps.
Note: When memory is full, the
TAD displays
FL
and announces,
“Memory is full,” and you cannot
record the outgoing message.
Delete old messages to make room
in memory (see “Erasing Mes-
sages” on Page 14).
2. Speak in a normal voice about 8
inches (20 cm) away from the front
of the TAD. Ask for the caller’s
name, phone number, and mes-
sage. The display counts down the
seconds as you record.
Hint: Do not tell callers that you are
not home. Instead, say that you
cannot come to the phone right
now.
3. When you finish recording, release
ANNC
. The TAD beeps and repeats
the outgoing message so you can
verify it.
To play the outgoing message at any
time, press
ANNC
. If no outgoing mes-
sage is recorded, the TAD says “No an-
nouncement.”
