USING CALL BREAK-
THROUGH
If you screen your calls but want to be
sure to know when calls come in from
certain people, give those people your
call breakthrough (CBT) code. Tell them
to enter the code during the outgoing
message.
When a caller enters the CBT code, the
TAD alerts you with two beeps, then it
pauses for 40 seconds. Then the TAD
sounds one beep every second for 5
seconds. To answer the call within the
45-second alert, pick up the handset. If
you do not answer, the caller can leave
a message after a long beep sounds.
Note: CBT works only when you use the
OGM 1 message.
Changing the CBT Code
The CBT code is preset to 168, but you
can change it by following these steps.
1. Hold down CODE/SKIP until the TAD
beeps once. Co appears.
Note: If you do not complete each
of the following steps within 8 sec-
onds, the TAD stops setting the
code. Start again from Step 1.
2. Press MEMO/REPEAT. Cc appears
followed by the digits of the preset
CBT code in sequence, then the
first digit reappears. For example,
when the security code is 168, the
display shows
Cc , –1 , –6 ,
–8
, then
–1 reappears.
3. Repeatedly press SKIP/CODE or
MEMO/REPEAT to set the first digit,
then press ANSWER . The second
digit appears.
Note: If you enter an incorrect digit,
press
STOP/TIME SET , then repeat
the procedure.
4. Press SKIP/CODE or MEMO/REPEAT
to set the second digit, then press
ANSWER . The third digit appears.
5. Press SKIP/CODE or MEMO/REPEAT
to set the third digit, then press AN-
SWER . The TAD sounds a long
beep.
