SETTING THE CLOCK, CALENDAR, RECORD TIME, AND REMOTE CODE

After connecting the TAD to the telephone line and to AC power, follow
these steps to set the clock, calendar, record time, and remote operation
security code.

NOTES:  Record time is the total recording time available for all incoming
        messages and memos.  You can select 7 or 10 minutes.  If you select
        7 minutes, the sound quality of messages will be slightly better
        when played back.

        If you want more than 30 seconds to press a button while entering
        information, the TAD saves all settings you entered up to that
        point and says the time and date.  You must start again at Step 1
        to enter additional information.

1.  Using a pointed object, such as a straightened paper clip, press SET
    CODE/DATE on the back of the TAD.

    The TAD says "Time of day:  Set hour" and announces the current
    setting.

2.  Press NEXT/YES to advance the hour or REPEAT to scroll backward.

3.  Press SET CODE/DATE to move to the next setting, or press STOP/NO to
    stop entering settings and save what you entered.  When the TAD tells
    you to set the minutes, month, date, day, record time, and each digit
    of the remote operation security code, press NEXT/YES or REPEAT to
    change the setting.

    NOTES:  If you do not select a remote operation security code, the TAD
            uses the default, 11.

            If you press STOP/NO before trying to change both remote
            security code digits, the code does not change.

4.  After you enter the last digit of the remote operation security code,
    press SET CODE/DATE.  The TAD announces the code, the set time and
    date, and the number of calls and messages.

To hear the current time and date and the number of calls and messages,
press STOP/NO when the TAD is not set to answer calls.

RECORDING THE OUTGOING ANNOUNCEMENT

Before you set the TAD to answer calls, you must record the announcement
callers will hear when the TAD answers their calls.  The announcement can
be up to one minute long.

We recommend that you write down your announcement before recording it.
If you plan to record callers' messages, ask for the caller's name, phone
number, and message.

Important Hint:  Do not tell callers that you are not home.  Instead, say
that you cannot come to the phone right now.  For example:

    "You have reached the Jones residence.  We are unable to come to the
    phone right now, but you may wait for the beep then leave your
    message."

Follow these steps to record your outgoing announcement.

1.  Press and hold ANN PLAY/ANN REC until the TAD says "Record
    announcement," and then beeps.

2.  Release ANN PLAY/ANN REC and record your announcement.  For the
    clearest sound, speak into the microphone from about 18 inches away.

3.  When you finish the announcement, press STOP/NO.

CHECKING THE OUTGOING ANNOUNCEMENT

To play the outgoing announcement, press and release ANN PLAY/ANN REC and
adjust VOLUME on the right side of the TAD.

NOTES:  If you press ANN PLAY/ANN REC for more than 2 seconds, the TAD
        records new outgoing announcement.

        You can record a new announcement at any time.  However, if memory
        is full, you must erase messages before recording the announcement.

CHOOSING THE NUMBER OF RINGS

The ANSWER switch selects how many times the phone will ring before the
TAD answers the call.  Set this switch before you set the TAD to answer
calls.

     TOL S (Toll Saver) - Use this setting when you will be calling by
     long-distance to hear your messages.  If there are new messages, the
     TAD answers in about two rings.  If you have no new messages, the 
     TAD waits about four rings to answer.  This lets you hang up before
     the TAD answers to avoid unnecessary fees.

     DEL (Delayed Answer) - The TAD answers in about four rings.  This 
     gives you time to answer calls before the TAD does.

     IMM (Immediate Answer) - The TAD answers in about two rings.  This
     saves the caller from having to wait several rings.  This setting is
     also useful for screening calls (see "Screening Calls," Faxback Doc.#
                   , Operation).

SETTING THE INCOMING MESSAGE SWITCH

Set the INCOMING MSG switch before setting the TAD to answer calls.  The
INCOMING MSG switch selects whether or not the TAD will record messages.

    30 SEC - Sets the TAD to record messages of up to 30 seconds each.

    ANN ONLY - Sets the TAD to play your outgoing announcement only,
    without recording messages.

NOTE:  At the end of the specified time, the TAD beeps and stops recording.
