1. Speak loudly and clearly about 6 to 8 inches from the base unit microphone.
2. Avoid any background noise.

The unit does not record incoming messages.
1. Memory may be full, please see page 28 on erasing individual messages.
2. Announce Only mode may be activated. If Announce Only is ON, the machine will play the
greeting, but will not record incoming messages. Please see page 14.
3. The volume may be too low for you to hear the greeting and the caller's message.
4. The machine may have been accidentally turned OFF. If the machine is turned OFF, indicator
lights will not be lit.
5. The caller may have hung up within 4 seconds of the machine answering a call, and therefore
the TA-150 will not record a message.
6. In certain situations, your local telephone company may transmit signals that are recorded by
your machine without any associated message.
7. No calls were actually received by the TA-150.
