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 37.
L You need to store the voice mail
access number to activate the
message alert feature (page 38) for
voice mail service.
Storing the voice mail (VM)
access number
In order to listen to your voice mail
messages, you must dial your service
provider/telephone company’s voice
mail access number. Once you have
stored your voice mail access number,
you can dial it automatically (page 40).
1 {MENU} i {#}{3}{3}{1}
2 Enter your access number (24 digits
max.). i {SAVE} i {OFF}
Note:
L When storing your voice mail access
number and your mailbox password,
press {PAUSE} to add pauses (page
15) between the access number and
the password as necessary. Contact
your service provider/telephone
company for the required pause time.

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.
Turning VM tone detection on/off
The default setting is “On”.
