For Voice Mail service subscribers
If you subscribe to a flat-rate service 
package that includes Caller ID, Call 
Waiting, Voice Mail, and unlimited local/
regional/long distance calls, please note 
the following:
L
To use the Voice Mail service provided 
by your telephone company rather than 
the unit’s answering system, turn off the 
answering system (page 38).
This unit does not have an indicator to 
indicate if there are new messages in 
your mailbox service.
L
To use this unit’s answering system 
rather than the Voice Mail service 
provided by your telephone company, 
please contact your telephone company 
to deactivate your Voice Mail service.
If your telephone company cannot do 
this:
– Set this unit’s “Ring count” setting 
so that this unit’s answering system 
answers calls before your 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.
– Change the ring count of the Voice 
Mail service so that the answering 
system can answer the call first. To do 
so, consult your telephone company.
Caller’s recording time
You can change the maximum message 
recording time allotted to each caller.
The default setting is “3min”.
Greeting only”: The unit plays the 
greeting message but does not record 
caller messages.

If the message memory becomes full, 
the unit automatically switches to the 
Greeting only” mode and no new 
messages are recorded. If you have 
recorded your own greeting message, 
that same greeting message is 
announced to callers even though their 
messages are not recorded. If you have 
not recorded your own greeting 
message, the prerecorded message 
used for “Greeting only” mode is 
announced to callers (page 39).
Message alert 
You can select whether or not the 
message indicator on the handset flashes 
when new messages are recorded (page 
40). The default setting is “Off”.
