About Announcements
• You can record up to 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 “Set
Announce Only” , located in the Feature Summary chart later in this sec-
tion, to change your announcement selection.
