SCREENING CALLS
To screen your calls, let the TAD an-

caller’s message through the TAD’s
speaker. If you decide to answer the
call, pick up any phone connected to
the same phone line as the TAD. The
TAD stops recording and resets to an-
swer the next call.
Note: If you pick up the phone just as
the TAD answers, the TAD might not
stop recording. If this happens, hang
up the phone momentarily, then pick it
up again.

ter playing them back, they are auto-
