MESSAGE LIGHT

If you have a voice mail service with your telephone company, the
large indicator at the top of the display will flash red to alert you that
you have new messages.

The 

MESSAGE

 indicator also monitors the unit’s situation. When the phone is in

use, the 

MESSAGE

 indicator will be on continuously.

MESSAGE WAITING

This unit’s 

MESSAGE WAITING DETECTION

 is for both FSK and

Stutter Dial Tone (SDT) systems.

1.

FSK

The 

MESSAGE

 indicator will flash and

 

[MESSAGE WAITING] will

appear on the display for 20 seconds when a message waiting signal is
received from the Central Office.

2.

SDT

This unit will check your line for a stutter dial tone every time you
hang up or each time a call goes unanswered. The 

MESSAGE

 indicator

will flash if a stutter dial tone is detected.  There may be some delay
in lighting the 

MESSAGE

 indicator. This delay is due to regulatory

matters and does not indicate a problem with the unit.
This unit may not be activated or deactivated under certain conditions.
For example, when you retrieve messages from an outside phone (not
your own telephone number), the

 MESSAGE

 indicator may not be

canceled when you return home. If you experience this situation, pick
up the handset and hang up. The 

MESSAGE

 indicator will cancel.
