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 select a mailbox by
pressing (*)(1) (MAILBOX 1), (*)(2) (MAILBOX 2) or (*)(3)
(MAILBOX 3) while the caller 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 is
automatically disconnected.
If the message is shorter than two seconds, it will not be recorded.
To turn off the answering function
Press (ANSWER ON/OFF) so that the red light turns off.
If you want to turn off the answering function from the handset, turn Jog
Dial down to make “ANSWERING OFF” flash in step 2 on page 41, then
press Jog Dial.
