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 37). For details, see 
page 42.
Voice mail message indication
The unit lets you know that you have new voice 
mail messages by showing “VoiceMail:Line1” 
and/or “VoiceMail:Line2” on the display.
To listen to your voice mail messages, you must 
dial your service provider/telephone company’s 
voice mail access number.
Note:
L
If the handset or base unit still indicates there 
are new messages even after you have listened 
to all new messages, turn it off by pressing and 
holding {OFF} on the handset until a beep 
sounds.
L
If your voice mail service uses voice mail tones 
and a message is over 3 minutes long, the unit 
may not indicate new messages.
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} on the handset or press 
{
SP-PHONE} on the base unit, you have new 
voice mail messages. Soon 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.
Turning VM tone detection on/off
The default setting is “On”.
Program this setting using either the one of the 
handsets or base unit.
