Use the
Clr voicemail feature when the telephone indicates there is new voicemail
but there is none. For example, when you have accessed your voicemail while
away from home. The
Clr voicemail feature only turns off the indicators; it
does not delete your voicemail messages. As long as you have new voicemail
messages, your telephone service provider continues to send the signal that turns
on the indicators.
