Outgoing message
The outgoing message is the message
a caller hears when your Response 5
answers a call. It is supplied with
the following pre-recorded outgoing
message: ‘Hello. Your call cannot be
taken at the moment, so please leave
your message after the tone’. This
message can be kept as your
outgoing message, or if you prefer,
you can replace it by recording
your own message.
To record your own outgoing
message
•Press and hold down the OGM
button for about 10 seconds, until
you hear a long beep.
•Then release the OGM button.
•Record your message – from 5
to 30 seconds long. Speak clearly,
about 15-30cm from the
microphone.
•Press the SAVE/STOP button to
end recording. Your Response 5
will automatically rewind and play
the message back to you.
The machine is now ON and ready
to take messages.
Turning your Response 5 off does not
delete messages. They will be saved for
playback at a later time.
Please note
Once you have recorded over the
pre-recorded message it is permanently
erased and you will not be able to
return to it.
