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/

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 M
N
on the handset or
press MSP-PHONEN on the base unit,
you have new voice mail messages.

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.
