Display messages and lights
Knowing when you have a message
The Meridian 9316’s set indicator light lets you know that your voice mail system has a message
for you. The set indicator light flashes slowly and the display shows Message Waiting after
your voice mail has received a call. Contact your Telecommunications department to find out
how you can subscribe to message waiting services.
Clear Message Waiting
There may be times when Message Waiting appears on the display when there are no more
voice messages. You can turn the display message off using the Clear Message Waiting feature.
