This answering system has three voice mailboxes. Callers using a touch tone
phone can select the mailbox in which their messages will be recorded by
pressing 1, 2, or 3 while the system plays the outgoing announcement. Otherwise,
messages will be recorded in Mailbox 

.

• You can record two different announcements - one for normal answering and one

for when you've set the system to play the announcement only.

• Use normal answering when you want the system to record callers' messages.

Use Announce only when you want to give information to callers without accepting
messages.

• If you choose not to record an announcement, the system answers with a

pre-recorded announcement.

• The normal answering pre-recorded announcement says: "Hello. I'm unable to

answer your call right now. Please leave your name, number and a message after
the tone." The Announce Only pre-recorded announcement says: "Hello, I'm
unable to answer your call right now. Please call again. Thank you."

• By setting Announce Only to On or Off, you decide which announcement

your callers will hear when the system answers a call (the system comes set
for normal answering, with Announce Only turned off). See 

 on page 25 to change your announcement selection.

If you have assigned different mailboxes to different people, be sure to

tell callers in your announcement to press 1, 2, or 3 to leave a message in
the appropriate mailbox. Remember to leave a few seconds blank at the
end of your recorded announcement to allow callers time to select a mail-
box. An example of an announcement:
"Thank you for calling. To leave a message for Bob, press 

or, wait for the beep and leave your message."

The system will record your announcement for the currently selected answer
mode (Normal or Announce Only). To confirm or change the answer mode, follow
the directions under 

 and 

on pages 24 and 25.
