ANSWERING SYSTEM OPERATION
RECORDING THE
OUTGOING MESSAGE
Before you can set the TAD-1028 to an-
swer calls and record messages, you
must record the outgoing message
(OGM) the caller hears when the TAD
answers a call. Your outgoing message
can be up to 60 seconds long.
1. Hold down OGM/REPEAT until the
TAD-1028 beeps.
Note: If memory is full, the PLAY/
SKIP indicator flashes, the TAD-
1028 announces, “Memory is full,”
and you cannot record the outgoing
message. Delete old messages to
make room in memory (see “Delet-
ing Messages” on Page 19).
2. Speak your message in a normal
voice from about 8 inches in front
of the TAD.
Important: Do not tell callers you
are not home. Instead, say that you
cannot come to the phone right
now.
3. The TAD-1028 automatically stops
recording after 60 seconds, or you
can press
ANSWER/STOP/DELETE
when you finish the message. The
TAD-1028 beeps and automatically
plays back the outgoing message.
To play the outgoing message at any
time, press
OGM/REPEAT . If no outgo-
ing message is recorded, the TAD-1028
says, “No announcement.”
