NTRODUCTION
This telephone has been designed to be simple to use, however, you
can reach its full potential more quickly by taking a few minutes to read
this User's Guide. This telephone is a multifunction product for use with
the Call Waiting and Caller ID services available from your local
telephone company.
Your Caller ID Call Waiting phone allows you to:
• View the name and telephone number of a caller (Call Waiting Caller ID).
• Identify callers before you answer the phone.
• View the clock time and date of each incoming call.
• Record up to 40 Caller ID messages sequentially.
• Know who called while you are on the other line when you were away.
• Screen unwanted calls, eliminate harassment from annoying calls, or to
get prepared before answering a call.
IMPORTANT: Because cordless phones operate on electricity, you should
have at least one phone in your home that isn't cordless, in case the power in
your home goes out.
IMPORTANT: In order to use all of the features of this telephone, you must
subscribe to two separate services available from your local telephone
company: the standard Name/Number Caller ID Service to know who is
calling when the phone rings and Caller ID with Call Waiting Service to know
who is calling while you are on the phone.
CAUTION: When using telephone equipment, there are basic safety
instructions that should always be followed. Refer to the IMPORTANT
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS provided with this product and save them for
future reference.
