About Caller Identification

This telephone is designed to store and display information about
incoming telephone calls. It must be used with caller identifica-
tion service provided by your local telephone company; there is
a fee for this service, and it may not be available in all areas.
Additionally, this telephone can be used with call waiting and
voice mail, also paid subscriber services. This telephone can
provide information only if both you and the caller are in areas
offering caller identification service, and if both telephone com-
panies use compatible equipment.

The system keeps a record of the last 99 calls, whether you an-
swer the phone or not. The oldest call is numbered 1. When the
call history becomes full, the system drops the oldest call to make
room for a new call. If you subscribe to Caller ID with Call
Waiting, you can see who’s trying to reach you when you’re on
another call. The time and date are sent by your service provider,
and are recorded in the call history.

In order to receive name and number Caller ID information,
you must subscribe to name and number Caller ID service.
Caller ID information appears in the display after the first ring
of the incoming call.
