Voicemail service
In addition to your unit’s answering system
you may also have voicemail service from
your phone service provider.
Voicemail is
an answering service that may be offered by
your phone service provider. This service can
also record calls when you are unavailable to
answer the phone or when your line is busy.
Messages are recorded on the phone
company system and not on the unit’s
answering system.
R
To use the voicemail service rather than the
unit’s answering system, turn off the
answering system (page 28).
If you have unit’s answering system set to on
and also the voicemail enabled, the system
with least amount of rings will record the
message first.
Example:
If the unit’s answering system is set to 4 rings
(page 30) and the voicemail answering system
provided by your phone company is set to 6
rings (call your service provider), the unit’s
answering system will record the incoming call
first.
