Voice message/Mailbox

41

Most service providers offer you an external answering service. In this mailbox, a caller may leave a voice message for you

if your phone is switched off or not ready to receive,

if you do not want to answer,

if you are making a phone call (and if Call waiting is not active p. 15).

If the voice mail service is not part of your service provider's user package, you will need to register and the set- tings must be made manually. The following description may vary slightly depending on the service provider.
