Message Waiting
Use your
Msg
LED/button and LCD to see/retrieve message(s).
An extension can receive up to four simultaneous Message Waiting
indications and LCD messages. One message is reserved for the Message
Center.
Your telephone can be programmed to have up to four additional (flexible)
Message Waiting buttons/LEDs. Check with your System Administrator to see
if these buttons have been programmed on your telephone. If so, substitute
them when the
Msg
button/LED is mentioned in the following steps.
