Telephone base settings

If you subscribe to voicemail service offered by your telephone service
provider,

Voicemail and appear on the cordless handset and telephone

base when you have new voicemail messages. Contact your telephone
service provider for more information and assistance about using your
voicemail service. This feature only works on the voicemail associated with
line 1 or line 2, not the cell line.
After you have listened to all new voicemail messages, the indicators on the
handset and telephone base turn off automatically.
Use the clear voicemail feature when the telephone indicates that there is
new voicemail but there is none (for example, when you have accessed your
voicemail while away from home). Clearing the voicemail waiting indicator
only turns off the indicators; it does not delete your voicemail messages. As
long as you have new voicemail messages, your telephone service provider
continues to send signals that turn on the indicators.

To clear the voicemail indication manually:

Press the

MENU softkey on the telephone base in idle

mode to enter the main menu.
Press

DIR, CID

,

/DELETE or /REC to scroll to

Settings, then press the SELECT softkey.

,

/DELETE or /REC to choose

Line 1 or Line 2, then press the SELECT softkey.
Press

DIR, CID

,

/DELETE or /REC to scroll to

Voicemail, then press the SELECT softkey.
