Important Phone Tips
• Voicemail is included with your service. Dial "1" to set up
and access. If using an answering machine, set it to fewer
than five (5) rings.
• To place phones throughout your home, use a cordless
phone system with multiple handsets. Wall jacks are not
used with the AT&T Home Base.
• The "Phone 2" port can be used to connect an additional
phone or answering machine. It uses the same phone
number as the "Phone 1" port.
• Your AT&T Home Base does not support incoming/
outgoing fax service or home alarm systems.
• Your AT&T Home Base does not support rotary or pulse-
dialing phones.
Details on using voicemail and transferring a landline phone
number can be found on pages 11-12.
