Voice message/Mailbox
Most service providers offer you an
external answering service. In this
mailbox, a caller may leave a voice
message for you
• if your phone is switched off or not
ready to receive,
• if you do not want to answer,
• if you are making a phone call
(and if Call waiting is not active,
p. 14).
If the voice mail service is not part of
your service provider's user pack-
age, you will need to register and the
settings must be made manually.
The following description may vary
slightly depending on the service
provider.
