Editing Speed Dial Index Numbers
You may want to reorganize your speed dial index numbers. Speed dial numbers are automatically
assigned when you add a contact and may be changed by editing the contact. See To edit directory
contacts for instructions on editing a contact.
Accessing Voicemail
Voicemail is saved in a centralized location. If your extension has a voicemail message, your handset will
display the voicemail icon in the status bar and the LED will flash. The icon displays the number of
unviewed messages you have.
Voicemail is an optional feature set up by your system administrator.
