CALLER ID

About Caller Identification

This telephone has a Caller ID feature that works with Caller Identification
service provided by your local telephone company. When you receive a
call, the display on the handset will show you the information transmitted
by the telephone company about that call. The information can include a
name, telephone number, and the time and date of the call. There is a fee
for this service, and it may not be available in all areas. This phone can
provide information only if both you and the caller are in areas offering
Caller Identification service, and if both telephone companies use
compatible equipment. Additionally, if you subscribe to Call Waiting, this
phone lets you see who’s calling while you’re on another call (your
telephone company must provide the service needed for this feature to
work). The time and date are sent by the provider, along with call
information.
