Visual message waiting (voicemail) indicator
If you subscribe to a voicemail service offered
by your local telephone company, the voicemail
waiting indicator feature will provide visual
indication when you have new voicemail
messages. The VOICEMAIL light on the telephone
base will flash, and NEW VOICEMAIL and the
icon will appear on the handset screen(s).
NOTES:
1. This feature does not indicate new answering system
messages recorded on your phone.
2. For more information about the difference between your
answering system and voicemail, see page 40.
To clear voicemail indication
Use this feature when the telephone indicates there
is new voicemail but there is none (for example,
when you have accessed your voicemail from a
different telephone line while away from home).
This feature only turns off the displayed NEW
VOICEMAIL message, icon and VOICEMAIL light;
it does not delete your voicemail message(s). If there
actually are new voicemail messages, your local
telephone company will continue to send the signal
to activate the visual message waiting indicator.
To manually turn off the new voicemail indicator:
1. Press MENU/SELECT when in idle mode to enter
the feature menu.
2. Use
DIR / CID
to scroll to
>CLR VOICEMAIL, then press MENU/SELECT to turn
the voicemail indication off.
–OR–
Press OFF/CLEAR to cancel the procedure.
