You can use the <ANNO> key to make a voice 
announcement to another phone in your facility, if that 
phone has a speaker. If the called phone is also equipped 
with a microphone, the called party can answer your call 
without picking up the receiver (hands-free) and the 
speaker is automatically activated. This allows the other 
party to speak to you without picking up the handset.

Note:

If the phone called is an analog phone, it rings. If 
it is a SelecSet, the called party hears your voice 
but must pick up the handset to converse.

To use the voice announce feature:

Press <START>.

Press <ANNO>.

Dial the station number. If the party is busy, you hear 
busy tone.

You can use the <MANS> manual answer key to prevent 
voice-announced calls from coming to your phone. To 
prevent voice announced calls: 

Press <MANS>. The <MANS> key lights. 
Voice-announced calls ring normally.

To deactivate this feature, press <MANS> again.

Note:

Your system administrator must assign this 
feature to a programmable key for you.
