VOICE MAIL BASICS

To begin using your voice mailbox, you need to complete a few basic setup proce-

dures to initialize your mailbox, customize your personal greetings, record your voice

mail directory name, and access your mailbox. For additional voice mail options, see

page 62.

NOTE: All of the menu options used for voice mail features are presented as numeric

entries in the following instructions. You can, however, access these options using the

menu selection buttons on the display.

Initializing Your Mailbox

The first thing you should do is initialize your mailbox. This allows you to:

• Change the default password number to a personal password.

• Record a name to identify yourself in the company directory.

• Listen to the voice mail introduction.

To initialize your mailbox:

NOTE: If you don’t know what the voice mail extension number is, check with your

voice mail administrator.

2. Press to identify yourself as a subscriber.

3. Enter your mailbox number and default password.

NOTE: Your mailbox number is your default password.

4. If you want a password, enter a new password using digits 0-9 (up to 12 digits).

Then press . Voice mail plays back your password.

If you do not want to use a password, just press .

5. Press to accept the entry or press to re-enter your password. The sys-

tem prompts you to record your directory name.

6. After the tone, record your first and last name. When finished, press .

7. Do one of the following:

• Press again to accept the name.

• Press to replay the name you just recorded.

• Press to add to your name.

• Press to erase and re-record your name.

The system then plays a prompt that introduces you to the basic voice mail features.
