The Basics
Important Caller ID Information
To use Caller ID and Call Waiting, you must be in an area where
those services are available and you must subscribe to those
services through your local phone company.
Where Caller ID is offered, one or more options are generally
available:
caller’s number only
caller’s name only
caller’s name and number
If you subscribe to Call Waiting and Caller ID, the system can
show you the incoming caller information, even when you are
already talking on the phone.
Read This Before Installation
We have designed your phone to conform to federal regulations
when you can connect it to most phone lines. However, each
device that you connect to the telephone line draws power
from the line. We refer to this power draw as the phone’s ringer
equivalence number, or REN. The REN is on the bottom of your
phone.
