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 and thank you for calling.”
When recording the greeting you should be about 6 inches from the unit. Eliminate as 

much background noise as possible.

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

ANNOUNCE button. The unit announces “Record your 

announcement after the tone,” and displays ANNOUNCE RECORD. After the tone,

ANNOUNCE button when you finish.

ANNOUNCE button and release it when you hear the tone, or press and hold the
