Voice Mail++
8.Voice Mail
Voice Mail is a network feature that enables those who call you to leave
a voice message.
Note: You can use Voice Mail with either one or two phone lines.
When you receive a voice message, your phone lets you know by beeping,
displaying an icon on the screen, or showing a text message. The method
of notification depends upon your carrier.
Additionally, if you receive more than one V oice Mail message, your phone
might display the number of messages that you have received. Finally, if
you have subscribed to two different phone lines, the message would
indicate to which line the message is intended.
However, even though your phone notifies you of a message, the Voice
Mail feature is independent of your phone’s software. To use Voice Mail,
you must have:
• a voice mail subscription
• a voice mailbox number
• a temporary password
These items are provided by your Service Provider. Additionally, your
Service Provider should tell you how to record a greeting for your voice
mailbox and how to change the temporary password.
After you obtain this information from your Service Provider, you must
then save the voice mailbox number given to you to your phone. Refer to
“Saving the Voice Mailbox Number” on page 36.
After you have saved your voice mailbox number, refer to “Listening to
Your Voice Messages” on page 36.
Note: If you have difficulty using the Voice Mail feature, contact your
Service Provider.

Working with Two Phone Lines
If your particular SIM card supports it, this phone can have two phone
lines. Your Service Provider can let you know if your SIM card allows the
use of this feature and give you access to the use of two phone lines.
If you decide to use two phone lines, you can select one of the two lines
for outgoing calls, but you can still answer calls on both lines.
If you use two phone lines, you will be given a voice mailbox number for
each line. You need to save each phone line’s voice mailbox number
separately.
To do this, first select the outgoing line and save its voice mailbox number .
Then, select the outgoing line and save its number.

Notes about voice tags
• Voice tags are not language dependent; any clearly spoken word or
phrase can serve as a voice tag.
• It’s easier for the phone to differentiate between long, unique voice
tags. For example you might want to record a person’s first and last
names rather than their first name.
• Voice tags must be no longer than 2 seconds.
• Voice tags are sensitive to background noise. Record and use them in
a quiet environment.
• If you delete a name, any associated voice tag is also deleted.
• The recording process stops automatically; pressing
