Voice mail service for
landline
Voice mail is an automatic answering service
offered by your service provider/telephone
company. After you subscribe to this service, your
service provider/telephone company’s voice mail
system answers calls for you when you are
unavailable to answer the phone or when your line
is busy. Messages are recorded by your service
provider/telephone company, not your telephone.
Please contact your service provider/telephone
company for details of this service.
Important:
R
To use the voice mail service provided by your
service provider/telephone company rather than
the unit’s answering system, turn off the
answering system (page 61). For details, see
page 67.
Listening to voice mail messages
When you have new voice mail messages,
“
Voice Mail:

and/or
“

”
is
displayed if message indication service is available.
In order to listen to your voice mail messages, you
must dial the voice mail access number of your
service provider/telephone company.
Handset / Base unit
To listen to your voice mail messages, you have to
dial your voice mail access number manually.
Note for handset and base unit:

are new messages even after you have listened
to all new messages, turn it off by pressing and

Voice mail (VM) tone detection
Handset / Base unit
Your service provider/telephone company sends
special signals (sometimes called “voice mail
tones” or “stutter tones”) to the unit to let you know
you have new voice mail messages. If you hear a
series of dial tones followed by a continuous dial
tone after you press
M
N
on the handset or lift
the corded handset, you have new voice mail
messages. Soon after you hang up a call or after
the phone stops ringing, your unit checks the
phone line to see if new voice mail messages
have been recorded.
Turn this feature off when:
– You do not subscribe to voice mail service.
– Your service provider/telephone company does
not send voice mail tones.
– Your phone is connected to a PBX.
If you are not sure which setting is required,
contact your service provider/telephone company.
