Messages and voice mail
Problem
Cause and solution
Remote message 
retrieval:
How can I retrieve voice 
mail messages from 
other locations?
L
Voice messages can be retrieved while away from 
home or office using a touch tone phone if the 
automated attendant system or auto answer system is 
active for any of the lines.
To access messages remotely:
– Dial the main phone number.
The unit will be in either Automated Attendant mode 
or Auto Answer mode.
L
The password for handset 1 is “1111” by default. See 
page 63 for a full explanation of available commands.
Incoming messages:
What is the maximum 
message length a caller 
can leave?
L
The maximum message length is three minutes. Up to 
255 messages can be left in total, including all cordless 
handsets, the base unit, and greeting messages.
Transferring calls to voice 
mail:
How can I transfer a call 
to another person’s 
voicemail?
L
A call can only be transferred directly to the General 
Delivery Mailbox, not to other extensions. You can 
however transfer a call to another person’s voice mail 
through the General Delivery Mailbox.
L
When a call is received at the base unit, the operator 
must press the F key and replace the base unit 
handset. The caller will then hear the greeting assigned 
to the line on which he is calling. While the greeting is 
playing, the caller can press the extension number 
followed by {#}. 
L
If the cordless handset answer mode is on, the caller 
will hear the personal greeting message at the end of 
the second ring, then he/she can leave a message at 
the tone.
L
If the cordless handset answer mode is off, the caller 
will hear the following message at the end of the fifth 
ring: “Sorry, no one is available to answer the call. To 
leave a message, press 1. To call another extension, 
press 2. To call the operator, press 0
”. If the person the 
caller wishes to speak to is on another call, the caller 
will hear “Sorry, this line is busy. To leave a message, 
press 1. To call another extension, press 2. To call the 
operator, press 0
”.
No beep after greeting 
message:
The greeting message is 
played but there is no 
beep, what is wrong?
L
This happens when the particular line is set to 
Automated Attendant mode. It should be set to Auto 
Answer mode. See page 71.
