Using Voice Mail Service
If you are in a place where radio waves do not reach or the power turns off, the center holds
Voice Mail messages on behalf of you.
The caller hears an answer message and his/her message is held at the Voice Mail Service
Center. You can play back the Voice Mail message anywhere in Japan.
You have to apply in order to use the Voice Mail Service.

About Voice Mail Service
●
The recording time for a Voice Mail Message is approximately three minutes of up to 20 messages.
●
The Voice Mail Message is held up to for approximately 72 hours.
●
There is also announcement only, which simply allows you to tell callers that you cannot answer the phone (absence
announcement.)
●
You can make or take calls as usual even if you set Voice Mail Service to “Activate”.
●
When a call comes in while Voice Mail Service is set to “Activate”, the ring tone (specified in “Select ring tone”) will
sound for approximately 10 seconds. (Your own setting is also enabled. See pages 286, 288.) If you answer the call
within
10 seconds, you can start talking. If you did not answer, the call is connected to the Voice Mail Service Center.
Further, the Voice Mail icon on the Stand-by display, “Voice mail” icon, or “Received calls” inform you of the missed
call.
●
You can just press keys to connect the call to the Voice Mail Service Center. You can also connect the call that
comes in during a call to the center.
●
Voice Mail Service will be deactivated automatically if you set “Call forwarding” to “Activate”.
●
You can use four-digit “Network security code” set at purchase to operate Voice Mail Service from touch-tone
ordinary phones or payphones. (Follow the procedures specified in the “Remote control” setting.)
●
If a “User unset” call comes in while “Caller ID request” is set to “Activate”, the announcement requesting Caller ID
will play. (Voice Mail Service is not available.)
●
You cannot operate Voice Mail Service if you are out of the service area or out of reach of radio waves.
●
The video-phone calls cannot be connected to the Voice Mail Service Center, even when Voice Mail has been
activated; instead they are treated as ordinary incoming video-phone calls.
