GETTING STARTED
Initializing Your Mailbox
To access voice mail, the first thing you need to do is initialize your mailbox. This
allows you to change the default password for your mailbox, record your name for the
company directories, and listen to the voice mail introduction.
To initialize your mailbox:
1. Dial the voice mail extension number. (You hear the main menu.)
NOTE: If you do not know the voice mail extension number, check with your voice
mail administrator.
2.
Say “Login” or press to identify yourself as a subscriber.
3. Enter your mailbox number using the dialpad buttons.
4. Enter your default password using the dialpad buttons.
NOTE: Your mailbox number is your default password.
If you want a password, enter a new password using digits 0-9 (up to 12 digits),
and then press when you are done. The messaging system plays back your
password.
If you do not want to use a password, just say “Skip” or press .
5. Say “Accept” or press to accept the entry or say “Erase” or press to erase
and re-enter your password. The system prompts you to record your directory
name.
6. After the tone, record your first and last names.
7. When prompted, do one of the following:
• Say “Accept” or press
again to accept the name.
• Say “Replay” or press
to replay the name you just recorded.
• Say “Append” or press
to add to your name.
• Say “Re-record” or press
to erase and re-record your name.
NOTE: The system then plays a prompt that introduces you to the basic voice mail
system features. You can skip this introduction by saying “Skip” or by pressing ,
if desired.
