Your Personal Voicemail Account

You can access your personal voice messages directly from your phone. But your administrator must set up your voicemail account, and may also set up your phone to access the voicemail system.

The Messages button on your phone acts as a speed dial into the voicemail system.

When you aren’t at your desk, you can call your voicemail system to access your voicemail. Your administrator can give you the voicemail system phone number.

Because each voicemail system is different, we can’t tell you how to use your voicemail system. For information about your voicemail commands, see the voicemail system user documentation or contact your administrator.

If your administrator has not set up your personal voicemail phone number on your phone, you can set it up your self.

Procedure

Step 1 Press Applications .
