New voicemail
10:15 PM

Use the Clr voicemail feature when the telephone indicates there is new
voicemail but there is none. For example, when you have accessed your
voicemail while away from home. The Clr voicemail feature 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 that turns on the indicators.
