For Telstra Homeline service subscribers

To receive Voice Mail and use answering system properly, please note the following:

L “Voice Mail” is a service provided by your Service Provider. You will need to first subscribe or activate this service through your Service Provider. Consult your Service Provider on how to operate this service and how you will be notified that you have messages on your Voice Mail.

To use this service you will be required to leave your answering machine off on your unit.

This will allow the Voice Mail to receive any messages.

This unit does not have a visual indicator to indicate if there are new messages in your Voice Mail service. Your Service Provider may use a “Stutter” dial tone to indicate that you have Voice Mail left.

L To use the unit’s answering machine rather than the Voice Mail service provided by your Service Provider, please consult your Service Provider to have it removed or deactivated permanently or temporarily.

Alternatively you can leave this service connected and change the “Number of Rings” to a shorter duration on your unit so your unit’s answering machine can pick up the call prior to the Voice Mail provided by your Service Provider.

Note:

L Provider Voice Mail can capture messages that can be missed while the customer is on the Internet.
