Clear voicemail
If you subscribe to voicemail service offered by your telephone company,
NEW VOICEMAIL and appear on the handset, and the VOICEMAIL light
on the telephone base ashes when you have new voicemail messages.
Contact your local telephone company for more information and assistance
about using your voicemail service.
After you have listened to all new voicemail messages, the indicators on both
the handset and telephone base turn off automatically.
Use the clear voicemail feature when the telephone
indicates that there is new voicemail but there is none (for
example, when you have accessed your voicemail while
away from home). Clearing the voicemail waiting indicator
only turns off the indicators; it does not delete your
voicemail messages. As long as you have new voicemail
messages, your local telephone company continues to
send the signal to turn on the indicators.
To manually turn off these indicators:
Press MENU/SELECT to show the menu when the handset is not in use.
Press or to select
>
CLR VOICEMAIL, then press MENU/SELECT. The
screen shows TURN OFF INDICATOR?
Press MENU/SELECT to conrm your selection.

Press MENU/SELECT to show the menu when the
handset is not in use.
Press or to select
