SETTING THE RECORD

nounce Only to determine how the TAD will
record incoming messages.
At the 1 or 4 settings, the TAD plays the out-
going message and lets callers leave a mes-
sage up to 1 minute (or 4 minutes) long. At
the Announce Only setting, the TAD plays
the outgoing message but does not let call-
ers leave a message.

SELECTING THE OUTGOING
MESSAGE
The TAD has two prerecorded outgoing mes-
sages. One asks the caller to leave a mes-
sage: “Hello, no one is available to take your
call. Please leave a message after the tone.”
The TAD uses this message when the re-
cording time is set to 1 or 4 (see "Setting the
Record Time").
The other is simply an announcement and
does not let the caller leave a message: “Hel-
lo, no one is available to take your call.
Please call back another time.” The TAD
uses this message when the recording time
is set to Announce Only.
You can also record your own message (see
“Recording/Deleting an Outgoing Message”).
When you record your own outgoing mes-
sage, the TAD uses it for all recording time
settings (1, 4, and Announce Only).
To switch between your outgoing message
and the TAD’s prerecorded message, press
MENU once to enter the outgoing message
setting mode. Then press SKIP or REPEAT
until the current message starts to play.
While the message is playing, press
SKIP or
REPEAT until the desired message starts to
play. The TAD switches to the other mes-
sage and plays it.
Recording/Deleting an Outgoing
Message
Follow these steps to record your own outgo-
ing message (up to 30 seconds long).

sage. When you finish your message,

The TAD plays back your message.
To delete your outgoing message and use
the TAD’s prerecorded messages, press
MENU once, then press DELETE when your
message starts to play. The TAD announces
“Deleted.”
