Getting Started

Before you begin

About Caller Identification 

Caller ID with Call Waiting features in

this telephone let you see who’s calling

before you answer the phone, even

when you’re on another call.These

features require services provided by

your local telephone company.
Contact your telephone service

provider if:
• You have both Caller ID and Call

Waiting, but as separate services

(you may need combined service)

• You have only Caller ID service, or

only Call Waiting service

• You don’t subscribe to any Caller

ID or Call Waiting services.

You can use this phone with regular

Caller ID service, and you can use its

other features without subscribing to

either Caller ID or combined Caller

ID with Call Waiting service.There

may be fees for these services, and

they may not be available in all areas.
Caller ID features will work only if

both you and the caller are in areas

offering Caller ID service, and if both

telephone companies use compatible

equipment.
See Caller ID Operation, beginning on

page 14, for more details about how

these features work.
