Mailbox usage
This phone offers you three voice mailboxes, providing a convenient
way to share the mailbox feature with other members of your
household or business.
When a caller calls
The caller can choose one of the two ways to leave a message:
• If calling from a touch-tone phone, the caller selects a mailbox by
pressing
(*)(1)
(MAILBOX 1),
(*)(2)
(MAILBOX 2) or
(*)(3)
(MAILBOX 3) while he or her hears the greeting. The greeting stops
and a beep will sound, then the caller can start recording a message.
• Wait until the greeting finishes, then start recording a message.
When the caller does not select a mailbox, the message is
automatically recorded to MAILBOX 1.
Notes
• If four minutes have passed while recording the incoming message, the line
will be disconnected automatically.
• If the message is shorter than two seconds, it will not be recorded.
