4 1B1BFrequently Asked Questions
Why am I not getting a dial tone on my handset?
1. Ensure that the power adaptor is properly connected (refer to page XX5XX of the User
Guide) and that the power indicator is illuminated (refer to page 9 of the User Guide).
2. Check to make sure the telephone cable is securely plugged in (refer to page XX6XX of the
User Guide).
3. Check to make sure you are not roaming outside of the Verizon Wireless network.
Can I create a shortcut to access my voice mail?
The availability of a shortcut feature to access voice mail messages depends solely on the
capabilities of the corded or cordless phone that you use with Home Phone Connect.
Please refer to the user material that came with your phone. If your home phone does not
support a shortcut feature to access voice messages, you may have the option to save your
voice mail number into the address book on the handset and assign that number to the #1

your voice mail.

Can I use my telephone answering device instead of

number of rings if you would like to use the Verizon Wireless voice mail service. Please refer
to the user material provided by the Home Answering Machine manufacturer for
instructions.

requires external power to operate, service (including the ability to make and receive 911
