Message Indicator Lamp
The Message Indicator lamp (located at the top, right-hand corner of the phone)
shows the same indications as the

whenever there is a waiting message.

Because the telephone system allows for customization, you phone’s Message
Indicator lamp may have been reprogrammed to indicate a different feature.

is used by individuals that handle a high volume of incoming calls, such as reception-
ists. The DSS/BLF provides one-button access to up to 50 extension numbers or a
programmable feature. For more information about programming and using the DSS,
refer to the current Administrator’s Guide (part no. 550.8001).
