3-92 MERLIN II System Features
How you respond to a Message light depends on the type of phone you
have.
When the light next to the Message button is lit on a phone without a
display, call your attendant to get your messages.
When the Message light is lit on a display phone, someone in the system
has left you a message. Use your Message button to check your display
for messages.
The 7406D with Display phone has a Message light, but not a Message
button. The 5-button analog phone has neither. On these phones, you
can program the Message feature onto a button.
On a 7406D phone without a display, you must program both a Message
button and a Delete Message button. When your Message light is on, press
one of these buttons and then the other until your Message light goes off.
Then call a system attendant to see if there is a message for you.
