Chain-Dialing Service Numbers

Testing Stored Emergency Num-
bers
If you store an emergency service’s number

late evening or early morning hours to avoid
peak demand periods. Also, remain on the
line to explain the reason for your call.

Caller ID Operation
If you subscribe to Caller ID service from
your phone company, the phone company
sends information about the call, as well as
the time and date, between the first and
second rings of every call you receive. The
phone displays this information after the
second ring, and it stores up to 30 Caller ID
records for later review. It also shows if the
caller information is unavailable or if the
name and number were blocked by the caller
(see “Caller ID Messages”).
If you subscribe to Call Waiting with Caller
ID, you hear a tone through the handset
when a call comes in, then the Caller ID
record appears.
If the phone’s Caller ID memory becomes
full, any new call replaces the oldest call’s
record.
