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 31). For 
details, see page 36.

You need to store the voice mail 
access number to activate the 
message alert feature (page 36) 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 38).

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. Minutes 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.
