Operation
Notes:
• Connecting a headset disconnects the
handset's earpiece and microphone.
•
VOL/CID
8
or
9
on the handset also
controls the headset's volume.
• If you place the handset on the base to
recharge it while the headset is con-
nected, be sure the handset seats prop-
erly.
• With a headset connected, you can
make or answer calls as usual using the
keys on the handset.
• You can use a handset holder (available
from your local RadioShack store) to
hang the handset on your belt for
greater convenience.
• When you finish using the headset, dis-
connect it from the handset and close
the rubber cover to protect the jack.
CALLER ID OPERATION
If you subscribe to Caller ID service from
your phone company, the phone company
sends information about the call, as well as
the time and date, between the first and sec-
ond rings of every call you receive.
The phone displays this information after the
second ring, and it stores up to 50 Caller ID
records for later review. It also shows if caller
information is unavailable or if the name and
number were blocked by the caller (see
“Caller ID Messages”).
If you subscribe to Call Waiting with Caller
ID, you will hear a tone through the handset
when a call comes in, then the Caller ID
record appears. If you want to answer the in-
coming call, press
FLASH
. To resume the
previous phone conversation, press
FLASH
again.
If the phone's Caller ID memory becomes
full, any new call replaces the oldest call's
record.
Reviewing Caller ID Records
If the handset is faceup on the base, it shows
the number of new Caller ID records, if any,
and the total number of records.
To review the contents of each Caller ID
record, lift the handset and press
CID
to re-
call the number of records on the display.
Then, repeatedly press
VOL/CID
9
to scroll
through the Caller ID records from the new-
est to the oldest, or
VOL/CID
8
to scroll back
through the records. To scroll quickly through
the records, hold down
VOL/CID
8
or
9
.
When you scroll past the last record, the total
record number appears, then the first record.
When you scroll past the first record, the total
record number appears, then the last record.
The top line of each record shows the date,
time and the number of calls from that num-
ber. The second line shows the caller's
name, and the third line shows the caller's
phone number.
To exit the Caller ID record display, press
