Voice messages

If you subscribe to voice mail, your wireless provider will furnish you with a voice
mailbox number. You need to save this number to your device to use voice mail.
When you receive a voice message, your device lets you know by beeping, displaying
a message, or both. If you receive more than one message, your device shows the
number of messages received.

Automate voice mail

You can insert special characters called dialing codes into phone numbers such as
voice mail, and save the number to a 1-touch dialing location. Dialing codes instruct
the receiving system to pause, wait, bypass, or accept the numbers that follow them
in the dialing string. See ’Setup phone numbers with dialing codes,’ p. 38.
