If you subscribe to a flat-rate service 
package that includes Caller ID, Call

note the following:
LTo use the Voice Mail service 
provided by your telephone service 
provider rather than the unit’s

LTo use this unit’s answering system 
rather than the Voice Mail service 
provided by your telephone service 
provider, please contact your 
telephone service provider to 
deactivate your Voice Mail service.
If your telephone service provider 
cannot do this:

telephone service provider does. It 
is necessary to check the ring count 
required to activate the Voice Mail 
service provided by your telephone 
service provider before changing 
this setting.
– Change the ring count of the Voice

Using Voice Mail 
service
Voice Mail is an automatic answering 
service offered by your telephone 
service provider. After you subscribe to 
this service, the telephone service 
provider’s Voice Mail system will 
answer calls for you when you are 
unavailable to answer the phone or 
when your line is busy. Messages are 
recorded by the telephone service 
provider, not your telephone.
Important:
LTo use the Voice Mail service 
provided by your telephone service 
provider rather than the unit’s 
answering system, turn off the 
answering system (page 30).
Storing the Voice Mail (VM) 
access number
In order to listen to your Voice Mail 
messages, you must dial your 
telephone service provider’s Voice Mail 
access number. Once you have stored 
your Voice Mail access number, you 
can dial it automatically (page 37).
1{MENU} i {0}{7}{1}
2Enter your access number (max. 32 
digits). i {Save} i {OFF}
Note:
LWhen storing your Voice Mail access 
number and your mailbox password, 
press {PA U S E} to add pauses (page 
15) between the access number and 
the password as necessary. Consult 
your telephone service provider for 
the required pause time.Example:
To erase the Voice Mail access 
number
Repeat step 1, then press and hold 
{Clear} until all digits are erased. Press 
{Save}, then press {OFF}.
Voice Mail (VM) tone 
detection 
Your telephone service provider sends 
special signals (sometimes called 
“Voice Mail tones” or “stutter tones”) to 
the unit to let you know you have new 
Voice Mail messages. If you hear a 
series of dial tones followed by a 
continuous dial tone after you press 
{C} or {SP-PHONE}, you have new 
Voice Mail messages. Minutes after you 
hang up a call or after the phone stops 
ringing, your unit will check the phone 
line to see if new Voice Mail messages 
have been recorded.
Turn this feature off when:
– You do not subscribe to Voice Mail 
service.
– Your telephone service provider does 
not send Voice Mail tones.
– Your phone is connected to a PBX. 
If you are not sure which setting is 
required, consult your telephone 
service provider.
