Handset settings

Clear voicemail indicator

If you subscribe to voicemail service offered by your telephone service provider, the icon and a line number appear on both the handset and telephone base when you have new voicemail messages. Contact your telephone service provider for more information and assistance about using your voicemail service.

After you have listened to all new voicemail messages, the indicators on both the handset and telephone base turn off automatically.

Use the clear voicemail indicator feature when the telephone indicates that there is new voicemail but there are none (for example, when you have accessed your voicemail while away from home). The clear voicemail feature only turns off the indicators; it does not delete your voicemail messages. As long as you have new voicemail messages, your telephone service provider

continues to send the signal that turns on the indicators.

To manually turn off these indicators:

1.Press the MENU softkey when the handset is not in use.

2.Press or to select SETTINGS, then press the SELECT softkey.

3.Press or to select Clear voicemail, then press the SELECT softkey.

4.Press or to choose from Line 1, Line 2, or Lines 1&2, then press the SELECT softkey. The screen shows Turn off indicator?

5.Press the YES softkey to confirm, or press the

NO softkey to exit to the previous menu.

• Your telephone service provider may alert you of new messages with a stutter (broken) dial tone. Contact your telephone service provider for details.

Voicemail is different from answering system messages recorded in your answering system. For more information about the difference, see page 60.
