GETTING STARTED
USING THE MESSAGE FEATURE
In today’s busy world, it’s almost guaranteed that you will call someone that is on
another call, does not answer, or is in DND. But, with the Message feature, you can
let the other person know you called.
When you leave a message, you can:
Have the called party return your call. When the party you called responds to
the message indication, a call is automatically placed to your endpoint.
Leave a message with the called party’s message center, (which can be a per-
son or voice mail). When the party you called responds to the message, a call is
automatically placed to his or her message center instead of your endpoint.
NOTE: To indicate that a message is waiting, the message icon ( ) is displayed.
