Follow these steps to change the number of rings (from 1-9).  After
recording its first call, the TAD answers after 2 rings.

NOTE:  If you plan to check your messages by long distance, set the number
       of rings to at least four to avoid unnecessary long distance charges
       when you call by remote to check your messages (see "Using the Toll
       Saver").

1.  Press PGM/DEL, then press RING.  The current number of rings appears
    on the display.

2.  Press 1M/3M.

3.  Press 3 to set the maximum message length to 3 minutes, or 1 to set
    it to 1 minute.  The TAD sounds two beeps.

RECORDING ANNOUNCEMENTS

Recording the Outgoing Announcement

The TAD has a built-in outgoing announcement that says "Please leave your
message after the tone."

You can record another announcement for the caller to hear when the TAD
answers a call.  The announcement can be up to 1 minute long.

Important Hints:

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

    Do not tell callers that you are not home.  Instead, say that you
    cannot come to the phone right now.

    The TAD can receive and save messages for up to four different users. 
    If you set the TAD to do this (see "Using the Mailbox Feature"), your
    outgoing announcement should explain how to leave a message for a
    particular person.

For example:

    "You have reached the Jones residence.  We are unable to come to the
    phone right now, but you may press: 1 to leave a message for John, 2
    to leave a message for Mary, 3 to leave a message for Susan, 4 to
    leave a message for Paul, or just wait for the beep, then leave your
    message."

If you are recording an announcement for a business, you might use:

    "Hello! You have reached XYZ Company.  To leave a message for our
    Sales Department, press 1; for Manufacturing, press 2; for Customer
    Service, press 3; for Delivery, press 4.  Or, you can leave a message
    after the beep."

Follow these steps to record your outgoing announcement.

1.  Press and hold OGM (outgoing message) until the answer indicator
    starts flashing.

2.  Release OGM and record your announcement.  Speak into the TAD from
    about 12 inches away.

    NOTE:  The outgoing message must be at least 2 seconds long for
           proper remote operation.

3.  When you finish speaking, press ON/OFF.  The TAD beeps and plays the
    announcement.  The answer indicator stops flashing.

After the announcement plays, the TAD is ready to answer and record
incoming messages.

Checking the Outgoing Announcement

You can press OGM at any time to play the announcement.  Adjust VOLUME on
the side of the TAD to a comfortable listening level.

To stop listening to the outgoing announcement before it ends, press
ON/OFF.

To delete the outgoing announcement, press PGM/DEL while the TAD is
playing it.  The display shows dL (delete).

Recording the Memory Full Announcement

The TAD has a built-in memory full announcement.  When the memory becomes
full and the TAD can no longer record messages, the TAD announces "The
memory is full."

Follow these steps if you want to record your own memory full announcement.

NOTE:  The maximum recording time for the memory full announcement is
       preset to 1 minute, but you can change it to 3 minutes.

1.  Press and hold OGM and 1M/3M at the same time until the answer
    indicator flashes.

2.  Speak into the TAD in a strong voice from about 12 inches away. 

3.  Press ON/OFF when you finish recording the announcement.  The TAD
    plays the current memory full announcement.

Checking the Memory Full Announcement 

To listen to your own memory full announcement, press OGM, then press
1M/3M immediately.

If you want to stop listening to the memory full announcement before it
ends, press ON/OFF.  The TAD beeps three times.
