Check Your Personal New Voice Messages
To find out if you have new voicemail messages, look for one of these signs:
• The light strip on your handset is solid red.
• The number of missed calls and voicemail messages is displayed on your screen. If you have more than
99 new messages, a plus (+) sign is displayed.
• An exclamation mark (!) indicates urgent voicemail messages.
You will also hear a stutter tone played from your handset, headset, or speakerphone when you use a phone
line. This stutter tone is line-specific. You only hear it when you use a line that has voice messages.
