VTech Telecommunications Ltd 80-0380-00 Manuel D’Utilisation

If your answer is yes, the existing telephone jacks 
in your home may no longer work. Your cable/VoIP 
service provider uses a different connection, separate 
from your old traditional telephone service, to connect 
the modem/router/terminal adapter installed in your 
home.
To allow all existing telephone jacks to work, contact 
your telephone service provider for solutions, such as 
rewiring services (fees may apply).
If your answer is no, your existing telephone jacks 
will continue to work as normal.

Some telephone service providers bundle or combine 
multiple services like voicemail and call waiting, so 
you may not be aware that you have voicemail. To 
check what services you have and how to access 
them, contact your telephone service provider.

Use the voicemail service only
To use your voicemail service rather than your 
answering system, turn off your answering system.

Use the answering system only
To use your answering system rather than your 
voicemail service, contact your telephone service 
provider to deactivate your voicemail service.

Use the answering system and voicemail together
You can also use your telephone answering system 
and voicemail together by setting your built-in 
answering system to answer before voicemail 
answers as described below. To learn how to program 
your voicemail settings, contact your telephone 
service provider.
If you are on a call, or if the answering system is busy 
recording a message and you receive another call, 
the second caller can leave a voicemail message.
Set your answering system to answer calls at least 
two rings earlier than your voicemail is set to answer. 
For example, if your voicemail answers after six 
rings, set your answering system to answer after four 
rings. Some voicemail providers may program the 
delay before answering calls in seconds instead of 
rings. In this case, allow six seconds per ring when 
determining the appropriate setting.
