ANSWERING SYSTEM OPERATION
RECORDING THE
OUTGOING MESSAGE
Before you can set the TAD to answer
calls and record messages, you must
record an outgoing message (OGM).
Your outgoing message can be up to 60
seconds long.
1. Hold down OGM/REPEAT until the
TAD beeps.
Note: If memory is full, the PLAY/SKIP
indicator flashes, the TAD announces,
“Memory is full,” and you cannot record
the outgoing message. Delete old mes-
sages to make room in memory (see
“Deleting Messages” on Page 18).
2. Position yourself about 8 inches
away from the TAD and speak into
the microphone (located on the
front of the TAD).
3. The TAD automatically stops
recording after 60 seconds, or you
can press
ANSWER/STOP/DELETE
when you finish recording the mes-
sage. The TAD beeps and auto-
matically plays the outgoing
message.
To play the outgoing message at any
time, press
OGM/REPEAT . If no outgo-
ing message is recorded, the TAD says,
“No announcement.”
SETTING THE NUMBER
OF RINGS
To set the number of times the TAD
rings before it answers a call, slide the
4, 7, TS switch (located on the right side
of the TAD) to the desired slot.
TOLL SAVER
To help you avoid unnecessary long
distance charges, you can slide
RING
SELECT to TS (Toll Saver). Once you
select TS , if there are new messages
(ones you have not played), the TAD
answers on the second ring. If there
are no new messages, the TAD an-
swers on the 4th ring, and gives you
time to hang up before it answers.
