SCREENING CALLS
Your TAD lets you listen as callers leave
messages. If you want to speak to a call-
er, pick up any phone on the same line
and begin speaking. The TAD detects
when you pick up the phone and auto-
matically resets to answer the next call.
Note: If you pick up the phone exactly
when the TAD answers, you might need
to press
STOP to stop the TAD, or hang
up momentarily, then pick up the phone
again.
If you do not want to take the call, do not
pick up the handset, and let the TAD fin-
ish recording the caller’s message.
PLAYING MESSAGES
The TAD stores each message in one of
the four mailboxes, depending on which
mailbox the caller selected. If there are
new messages in a mailbox, the mail-
box’s indicator flashes until all the new
messages have been played. The dis-
play shows the total number of messag-
es in all mailboxes.
To play all the messages in a mailbox,
press
PLAY . The display shows PL .
Then press the selected mailbox button.
(Or, to play only the new messages,
press and hold down the mailbox but-
ton.) The TAD announces “Mailbox __”
and the number of messages (or new
messages) stored in that mailbox.
Notes:
• If you check all messages and
there are no messages stored in
the selected mailbox, the TAD
says, “Mailbox __, no message.”
• If you check new messages and
there are no new messages stored
in the selected mailbox, the TAD
says, “Mailbox __, no new mes-
sage.”
The TAD announces the mailbox num-
ber and the total number of messages
for that mailbox. Before playing each
message, the TAD announces the mes-
sage number and the day and time
when each message was recorded. Af-
ter all messages play, the TAD says,
“End of message(s)” and saves all the
messages.
