Telephone settings

Clear voicemail

If you subscribe to voicemail service offered by your telephone service
provider, NEW VOICEMAIL and
VOICEMAIL light on the telephone base flashes when you have new
voicemail messages. To listen to your voicemail, you typically dial an access
number provided by your telephone service provider, followed by a security
code or PIN. Contact your telephone service provider for more information
and assistance about using your voicemail service.
After you have listened to all new voicemail messages, the
indicators on both 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 the signal to turn on the indicators.
To manually turn off these indicators:
