The VOICEMAIL light on the telephone base will flash, and NEW VOICE MAIL and the icon will appear on the handset screen(s). NOTES: 1. This feature does not indicate new answering system messages recorded on your phone. 2. For more information about the difference between your answering system and voicemail, see page 41. >DIRECTORY CALL LOG >CLR VOICE MAIL DIRECTORY TURN INDICATOR OFF? NOTES: 1. Telephone company voicemail may alert you to new messages with stutter (broken) dial tone. Contact your telephone company for more details. 2. For information about using your voicemail service contact your telephone company for assistance. To clear voicemail indication Use this feature when the telephone indicates there is new voicemail but there is none (for example, when you have accessed your voicemail from a different telephone line while away from home). This feature only turns off the displayed NEW VOICE MAIL message, icon and VOICEMAIL light; it does not delete your voicemail message(s). If there actually are new voicemail messages, your local telephone company will continue to send the signal to activate the visual message waiting indicator. To manually turn off the new voicemail indicator: 1. Press MENU/SELECT when in idle mode to enter the feature menu. 2. Use DIR / CID to scroll to >CLR VOICE MAIL, then press MENU/SELECT. 3. Press MENU/SELECT again to turn the voicemail indication off, or press OFF/CLEAR to cancel the procedure. 19
