Problem
Whenever I try to retrieve my
voice mail messages, the
retrieval is interrupted by the
fax tone.
●
You are probably entering 98 or 99 to retrieve your
messages. 9 is the default setting for the fax activation
code. If you use a voice mail service, set the fax activation
feature to off or reprogram the activation code (feature #41
on page 54).
