types of voice messages: those left on its built-in
answering system and those left at your service provider’s
voicemail (fees may apply). Your telephone’s built-in
answering system messages and voicemail messages are
separate. Each alerts you to new messages differently.

Using the answering system and voicemail together

setting your built-in answering system to answer before voicemail answers.
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

appropriate setting.
