3 pre-recorded outgoing messages to
choose from as follows:

Message 1 - “Hello, your call cannot
be taken at the moment so please
leave your message after the tone”.

This is the standard message used
when you want people to leave
messages.

(Message 1 is the default message.)

Message 2 - “Hello, your call cannot
be taken at the moment so please press
1 for Mailbox 1, 2 for Mailbox 2 or
leave your message after the tone”.

This message can be used if you
plan on using the mailboxes to tell
callers what to do.

Message 3 - “Hello, your call cannot
be taken at the moment and you
cannot leave a message, so please
call later”.

This is an advisory announcement
only and should be used if you just
want a message to be played and not
let callers leave a message.

Choose which of the three available
messages you want to be played to
callers when the answering machine
picks up the call. You can use either
the pre-recorded message or record
your own, see page 19.

The outgoing message is the
message a caller first hears when the
answering machine picks up their
call. Your Quartet 1500 comes with
