Callers using a touch tone phone can select the mailbox in which their messages will be recorded by pressing 1, 2, or 3. All other messages will be recorded in Mailbox 1. About Announcements • 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 mode (Announce Only OFF) when you want the system to record callers' messages. Use Announce Only mode (set to ON) when you want to give information to callers without accepting messages. • If you choose not to record an announcement, the system answers with a prerecorded announcement which 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 prerecorded 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 on page 33 to change your announcement selection. 31
