4.  Release ANNC when you are finished.
The unit beeps to indicate that it is no longer recording.  If the recording was successful, the current
message count (0 if you are using the system for the first time) shows in the Message Window.  If the
announcement was cut off or was unsuccessful for some other reason, the number in the Message Window
blinks, to let you know that you need to try again.
Playing Back Your Announcement
To play back your announcement, tap (quickly press and release) ANNC.  IF necessary, adjust the
VOLUME control.
Important: Be sure to release ANNC quickly.  If you hold the button down for more than one second, the
system erases the existing announcement and begins recording a new one.
While you play back your announcement, the Message Window shows AP (Announcement Playback.)
Message Volume Control
Use the message VOLUME control to adjust the volume of the system’s speaker.  Slide the switch until you
find a comfortable volume level.
Setting System to Answer Calls
After you have recorded your announcement, the Message Indicator Light should be on, indicating that the
system is ready to answer calls.  The Message Window shows the number of messages stored in memory (0
if no messages have been received).
If the Message Indicator Light is not on, press and release ON/OFF to turn on the system.
NOTE: To record callers’ messages, the Message Indicator Light must be on and the MESSAGES switch
on the left side of the unit set to YES
When the system answers a call, the caller hears the announcement you recorded followed by a beep.
While the system is taking a call, the Message Window displays --.
After the beep, the system begins recording your caller’s message.  After a message is received, the
Message Window shows the total number of messages stored and the Message Indicator Light blinks.
 Note: To conserve memory, messages are limited to a maximum of 1 minute each.  If the caller is still
speaking after 1 minute, is silent for more than 7 seconds, or if the system’s memory runs out, the system
beeps once and hangs up.
Bypassing the Announcement
Callers with touch-tone telephones can bypass your announcement by pressing * after the announcement
begins.  The system skips the rest of the announcement, beeps, and begins recording.
