To move the answering system to a different location in the house, follow these 
instructions:

1. Disconnect the phone line or any phones you may have connected to the 

answering system.

2. Unplug the power supply from the electrical outlet.
3. Move the answering system and phone line to the desired location.
4. Plug the power supply into an electrical outlet.
5. The MESSAGE counter flashes if there is a new message.
6. Connect all necessary phone lines.

Before using your new answerer, you should record a greeting (the announcement 

callers hear when your answering system answers a call). If you don’t record a 

greeting, callers hear a default greeting which says, “

your call. Please leave a message. Thank you for calling.”
When recording the greeting you should be about 6 inches from the unit. Eliminate as 

much background noise as possible.
1. Prepare your greeting.  

Sample Greeting: “Hi, this is (use your name here). I can’t answer the phone right 

now, so please leave your name, number, and a brief message after the tone, and 

I’ll get back to you. Thanks for calling.”

2. Hold down the GREETING button. The unit announces “

the tone,” and displays GREETING RECORD. After the tone, you have 30 seconds to 

record your greeting. 

3. Release GREETING when you finish.
