mailbox service.

telephone company, please contact your telephone company to deactivate your Voice 
Mail service.
If the telephone company cannot do this, set this unit’s “Ring count” setting so that 
this unit’s answering system answers calls before the telephone company’s Voice Mail 
service tries to answer your calls. It is necessary to check the ring count required to 
activate the Voice Mail service provided by your telephone company before changing 
this setting.
Example: To set the ring count to “2”, see page 44.
