■ If Line Ringing is set for No Ring or Delayed Ring, change the setting if appropriate.
■ If Line Ringing is set for Immediate Ring and this telephone is part of a combination
extension, see “Problems with Combination Extensions” on page 11-16.

Possible Cause 4.

properly.

Single-Line Telephone’s Message Waiting Light Does
Not Light 11
Possible Cause 1: The telephone is part of a combination extension which includes a system
telephone that has Background Music on.
What to do: Check to see if the system telephone has Background Music on. A single-line
telephone’s message waiting light will not light if Background Music is on at the system telephone.
■ If Background Music is on, turn it off. If the single-line telephone’s message waiting light
lights properly, the problem is solved.
■ If Background Music is not on, go to Possible Cause 2.
