The message waiting
indicator is activated by a
stuttered dial tone which
you can hear when you
pick up your phone.
BT Calling Features, such
as Call Diversion and Call
Barring use a stuttered
dial tone so therefore will
cause the message waiting
indicator to flash even if no
messages have been left.
IMPORTANT
After an incoming call, or
after lifting the handset,
your BT Big Button 200
will check the line for
any messages. You will

light flashes if messages
have been left.
The 1571 light may
continue to flash for a few
minutes after you have
listened to your messages.
