message for you when you are not able to take the call.
To use voice mail, you must have:
•
A voice mail subscription

A voice mailbox number
•
A temporary password
These items are assigned by your service provider. Your service provider
should also tell you how to record a greeting for your voice mailbox and
how to change the temporary password.
Note: If you have difficulty using the voice mail feature, contact
your service provider.

Work with two phone lines
If your particular SIM card supports it, your phone can have two phone
lines. Your service provider can tell you if your SIM card allows the use of
this feature and can give you access to 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 other line and save its number.
Voice mail indicators
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.
If you subscribe to two different phone numbers, the message icon shows
which line the voice mail message is on.
Voice mail message on line 1.
Voice mail message on line 2.
Voice mail message on line 1 and on line 2.
