Outgoing announcements
An outgoing announcement is the message callers hear when calls are
answered by the answering system.
The telephone is preset with an announcement that answers calls with
“Hello, please leave a message after the tone.” You can use this default
announcement, or replace it with your own.
The annoucement
can be up to 90
seconds in length.
When your
own recorded
annoucement
is deleted, calls
will be answered
with the preset
announcement.
