Voice Mail Service
37
Voice Mail service
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:
L
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 32).
For details, see page 36 (KX-TG8061
series: page 3).
Voice Mail message indication
When you have new Voice Mail messages,
“
New Voice Mail
”
is displayed on the
handset 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.
Note:
L
If the handset still indicates there are new
messages even after you have listened to
all new messages, turn it off by pressing
and holding
y
until the handset beeps.
L
If your Voice Mail service uses Voice Mail
tones and a message is over 3 minutes
long, the handset may not indicate new
messages.
Voice Mail (VM) tone detection
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
{C}
, 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.
