Visual message waiting (voicemail) indicator
If you subscribe to a voicemail service offered
by your local telephone company, the voicemail
waiting indicator feature will provide visual
indication when you have new voicemail
messages. The VOICEMAIL light on the
telephone base will flash, and NEW VOICE MAIL
and the icon will appear on the handset
screen(s).
NOTES:
1. This feature does not indicate new answering system
messages recorded on your phone.
2. For more information about the difference between your
answering system and voicemail, see page 49.
To clear voicemail indication
Use this feature when the telephone indicates
that 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 VOICE MAIL message, icon and
VOICEMAIL light; it does not delete your voicemail
message(s). If there actually are new voicemail
messages, your local telephone company will
continue to send the signal to turn on the visual
message waiting indication.
To manually turn off the new voicemail
indication:
1. Press MENU/SELECT in idle mode to enter the
feature menu.
2. Use or to scroll to the >CLR VOICE
MAIL menu, then press MENU/SELECT.
3. Press MENU/SELECT again to turn the voicemail
indication off, or press OFF/CLEAR to cancel
the procedure.
