Outgoing announcements

Outgoing announcements are the messages callers hear
when calls are answered by the answering system.
The phone is pre-programmed with announcements for
normal (Answer and Record) mode and for Announce
Only mode (see page 27.) If the phone is set up to
record messages, the phone answers calls with “Hello.
Please leave a message after the tone.
” You can use
this announcement, or replace it with a recording of
your own voice.

ment up to 90 seconds long. Announcements less than
