Caller ID
About caller ID
This product supports caller ID services provided by most telephone service
providers. Depending on your service subscription, you may see the caller’s
number, or the caller’s name and number from the telephone service provider after
the first or second ring. Caller ID from the home line allows you to see the name,
number, date and time of the incoming calls. The caller ID may appear differently
if the caller is matched to a directory entry (see Memory match on page 76).
Information about caller ID with call waiting
Caller ID with call waiting lets you see the name and telephone number of the
caller before answering the telephone, even while on another call.
It may be necessary to change your telephone service to use this feature.
Contact your telephone service provider and cell phone service provider if:
You have both caller ID and call waiting, but as separate services (you
may need to combine these services).
You have only caller ID service, or only call waiting service.
You do not subscribe to any caller ID or call waiting services.
There are fees for caller ID services. In addition, services may not be
available in all areas.
This product can provide information only if both you and the caller are in
areas offering caller ID service and if both telephone service providers use
compatible equipment. The time and date are sent by your telephone service
provider along with the call information.
You can use this product with regular caller ID service, or you can use this
product’s other features without subscribing to either caller ID or combined
caller ID with call waiting service.
