Caller ID - Call Waiting ID
Your
mi 6823
is capable of displaying the name and/or number of the party calling before
you answer the phone (
Caller ID
or
CID
). It is also capable of displaying CID information
in conjunction with a call waiting alert signal (
Call Waiting Caller ID
). With Call Waiting
CID, the CID data is displayed so you can decide whether to answer the incoming call, or
continue with your current conversation. Your
mi
6823
can hold up to 50 CID entries.
NOTES ABOUT CALLER ID & CALL WAITING CALLER ID
These are subscription services, provided by most regional telephone service pro-
viders. You must subscribe to these services to get the benefits of these features.
If you do not subscribe to Caller ID services, you can still use your
mi 6823
and
the other features it offers.
Due to regional incompatibilities, CID information may not be available for every call
you receive. In addition, the calling party may intentionally block their name and/or
phone number from being sent.
