Important information about subscription services
In order to use Caller ID, Call Waiting, or Call Waiting Caller ID (CWID), you must
first contact your telephone company and subscribe to the desired service.
L For more information, contact your telephone company.
If the Call Waiting Caller ID (CWID) feature does not function:
L You may need to contact your telephone company to activate this specific service, even
if you already subscribed to both Caller ID and Call Waiting with Caller ID services
(CWID).
If you subscribe to a flat-rate bundle service that includes Caller ID, Call Waiting,
Voice Mail, and unlimited local/regional/long distance calls, please note the
following:
L To use the Voice Mail service provided by the telephone company rather than the unit's
answering system, turn off the answering system by pressing {ANSWER ON} on the
base unit.
This unit does not have an indicator to indicate if there are new messages in your
mailbox service.
L To use this unit's answering system rather than the Voice Mail service provided by your
telephone company, please contact your telephone company to deactivate your Voice
Mail service.
If the telephone company cannot do this:
– Set this unit's "Ring count" setting (page 6) so that this unit's answering system
answers calls before the telephone company's Voice Mail service tries to answer your
calls. It is necessary to check the ring count required to activate the Voice Mail service
provided by your telephone company before changing this setting.
– Change the ring count of the Voice Mail service so that the answering system can
answer the call first. To do so, consult your telephone company.
