Check the status of the answering system feature settings by pressing
9 (SETUP) on the base.

Record Your Announcement from the Base

You can record up to three different announcements —

A, B, and AO

— that callers will hear when the system answers a call. Each
announcement can be up to three minutes long.

Announcements

A and B are used when you want the system to record

callers’ messages. Announcement

AO (Announce Only) is used when

you want to give information to callers without accepting messages.

If you choose not to record an announcement for

A or B, the system

answers with a prerecorded announcement: “Hello. Please leave a
message after the tone.

” The system does not have a prerecorded

announcement for

AO.

For Announcements

A and B, make sure you indicate in your

announcement who has been assigned to each mailbox, and that
callers should press

1 or 2 to access the appropriate mailbox.

NOTE: For best sound quality, record your announcement from the
cordless handset (see “Remote Access Commands” in ANSWERING
SYSTEM OPERATION At Cordless Handset or Touch Tone Phone on
page 35).

If the announcement you want to record is the currently selected
announcement (

A, B, or AO) go to Step 2. If not, select the

announcement by following the instructions in “Select Your
Announcement” on page 11, then go to

Step 2 below.

Press

* (CHANGE) on the base.

Press

7 (ANNC) .

At the prompt, begin recording your announcement. Speak in a
normal tone of voice, about nine inches from the microphone.

5

When you are finished, press

X or x. If the

announcement did not record successfully, you’ll hear an error
tone. Record the announcement again.

To review the announcement at any time, press

7 (ANNC).

NOTE: The total recording time for this system is about 12 minutes.
Since all messages, memos, and announcements contribute to that time,
a short outgoing announcement is recommended.
