Answering system and voicemail indicators
Your telephone has separate indicators for two different types of voice
messages: those left on its built-in digital answering system and those
left at your telephone service provider’s voicemail (fees may apply). Your
telephone’s built-in digital answering system messages and voicemail
messages are separate. Each alerts you to new messages differently.
If and XX New messages show on the handset
and the message window, there are new messages
in the built-in answering system. To listen to
messages recorded on your digital answering
system, press /PLAY/STOP on the telephone
base (page 74).
If and New voicemail display on the handset,
your telephone service provider is indicating that
it has new voicemail for you. To listen to your
voicemail, dial an access number provided by your
telephone service provider, followed by a security
code or PIN.
Some telephone service providers bundle or combine multiple services
like voicemail and call waiting, so you may not be aware that you have
voicemail. To check what services you have and how to access them,
contact your telephone service provider.
To use your voicemail service rather than the answering system, turn off the
answering system. To use the answering system rather than your voicemail
service, contact your telephone service provider to deactivate your
voicemail service.
NOTE: After reviewing all new messages, the number of old messages appears on the
message counter.
