This product is designed to store and display information about incoming telephone calls.
For this feature to work, the unit must be used with Caller Identification service provided
by your local telephone company; there is a fee for this service, and it may not be
available in all areas. This product 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.
When you use this product with Caller ID service, you can see who’s calling before you
answer the phone. And if you subscribe to Caller ID with Call Waiting, a combined
service available through many local telephone companies, you can see who’s trying to
reach you even when you’re on another call. This service may be called by different
names (such as Caller ID with Visual Call Waiting) by different local telephone companies
and may not be available in all areas.
NOTE:
You must subscribe to
combined
Caller ID with Call Waiting as a
single
service to see Call Waiting information. Check with your local telephone company
for availability.
This unit assigns each incoming call a number from 1 to 99. The most recent, unreviewed
call will have the highest number. (For example, if two calls have been received, call
number 02 is the most recent.) When the call history is full, the oldest call information is
automatically deleted to make room for the new incoming call information.
Call Waiting
If you subscribe to Caller ID with Call Waiting service, and you receive a Call Waiting call,
the screen will display call information for the call.
