Accessibility Features for Hearing-Impaired Users 
 
Visual message indicators 
An indicator light on the phone indicates that new messages 
are waiting. Icons on the screen also indicate that the phone 
has new messages. 
Adjustable ring tone and volume 
You can choose from a variety of ring tones for the 
phone. You can also change the volume of the ringer to 
suit your needs and choose different ring tones for 
contacts. 
While in a call, you can raise or lower the volume of 
the audio from the far end and of any other sounds on 
the device. 
Status and icon indicators let you know when calls are 
incoming, outgoing, active, or held. Indicators can also 
indicate the device's status and if features are enabled. 
 
Certain VVX models have visual ringing that enables the 
screen to flash bright orange for incoming calls (contact 
your system administrator to enable this feature). 
If you use a headset that supports electronic hookswitch 
(EHS), you can use the controls on your headset to answer 
and end calls. Additionally, you may be able to mute calls 
and control volume from your headset.
