About answering system and voicemail
Your telephone has separate indicators for two different types of voice messages:
those left on the built-in answering system and those left at your telephone service
provider’s voicemail. To listen to messages recorded on the built-in answering
system, refer to the
Message playback section; to listen to voicemail, contact your
telephone service provider for more information.
