Answering system and voicemail

Your telephone has separate indicators for two different types of voice messages: those

left on its built-in digital answering system and those left on your service provider’s

voicemail (fees may apply). Your telephone’s built-in answering system messages and

voicemail messages are separate. Each alerts you to new messages differently.

If XX new messages displays on the handset screens and the message window

on the telephone base flashes, there are new messages recorded on the built-in

answering system. If you turn on Msg alert tone, the telephone base beeps every

10 seconds when there are new answering system messages. To listen to your

message(s), press MENU/SELECT twice on the handset (page 19) or press

/PLAY/STOP on the telephone base (page 19).

If and New voicemail display on the handset, your telephone service provider

is indicating that it has new voicemail for you. To listen to your voicemail, dial an

access number provided by your telephone service provider, followed by a security

code or PIN. Refer to Voicemail waiting (visual message waiting) indicator in the

online user’s manual for a full description of the voicemail indicators.

waiting, so you may not be aware that you have voicemail. To check what services you

have and how to access them, contact your telephone service provider.

built-in answering system to answer before voicemail. Refer to Using the answering

system and voicemail together in the online user’s manual for instructions.
