To clear voicemail indication

Use this feature when the telephone indicates there is new voicemail but there is none (for example, when you have accessed your voicemail from a different telephone line while away from home). This feature only turns off the displayed NEW VOICEMAIL message, icon and VOICEMAIL light; it does not delete your voicemail message(s). If there actually are new voicemail messages, your telephone service provider will continue to send the signal to activate the visual message waiting indicator.

To manually turn off the new voicemail indicator:

1.Press MENU/SELECT when in idle mode to enter the feature menu.

2.Use DIR / CID to scroll to

>CLR VOICEMAIL, then press MENU/SELECT.

3.Press MENU/SELECT again to turn the voicemail

indication off, or press OFF/CLEAR to cancel the procedure.
