le on its built-in digital answering system and those le on your service provider’s
voicemail (fees may apply). Your telephone’s built-in answering system messages and

message(s), press MENU/SELECT twice on the handset (page 19) or press
/PLAY/STOP on the telephone base (page 19).

access number provided by your telephone service provider, followed by a security
