Voice Mail Service

Voice mail service

Voice mail is an automatic answering service offered by your service provider/telephone company. After you subscribe to this service, your service provider/telephone company’s voice mail system answers calls for you when you are unavailable to answer the phone or when your line is busy. Messages are recorded by your service provider/telephone company, not your telephone. Please contact your service provider/telephone company for details of this service.

Important:

LTo use the voice mail service provided by your service provider/telephone company rather than the unit’s answering system, turn off the answering system (page 29). For details, see page 33.

LYou need to store the voice mail access number to activate the message alert feature (page 33) for voice mail service.

Storing the voice mail (VM) access number

Voice mail (VM) tone detection

Your service provider/telephone company sends special signals (sometimes called “voice mail tones” or “stutter tones”) to the unit to let you know you have new voice mail messages. If you hear a series of dial tones followed by a continuous dial tone after you press {C}, you have new voice mail messages. Soon after you hang up a call or after the phone stops ringing, your unit checks the phone line to see if new voice mail messages have been recorded.

Turn this feature off when:

–You do not subscribe to voice mail service.

–Your service provider/telephone company does not send voice mail tones.

–Your phone is connected to a PBX.

If you are not sure which setting is required, contact your service provider/telephone company.
