The telephone icon appears to the
right of the line key and to the left of the phone
number on the display.
When you have new voice mail messages,
the telephone icon is replaced by an envelope
icon.
If you have elected to receive voice mail
messages as e-mail only, your handset will not
display the envelope icon when you have new
messages.
Envelope/Messages Waiting Icon An envelope icon will appear in the
display window and a vertical red light will flash
above the upper-right corner of the display
screen when you have messages waiting on
your phone set.
Note: To see the location of red light, refer
to the diagram on the previous page:

messages. The vertical message indicator light
will not go out until all new messages for all
lines that appear on the phone have been

directly below the display screen. The screen
