To see a stored name and phone number at the same time, press SELECT/CH when the cursor is by a memory location number. To exit this display, hold down DEL until the dis- play clears.

Dialing a Memory Number

To dial a number stored in memory, lift the handset and press MEM. The list of memory location numbers appears. Choose a memo- ry location (0120) by pressing a number or by repeatedly pressing VOL/CID 8 or 9, then press TALK.

You can also dial a memory number after pressing TALK. Press MEM, then enter a memory location number.

Chain-Dialing Service Numbers

For quick recall of numbers for special ser- vices (such as bank by phone), store each group of numbers in its own memory loca- tion.

Dial the service’s main number first. Then, at the appropriate place in the call, press MEM and enter the number for the location where the additional information is stored.

Testing Stored Emergency Num- bers

If you store an emergency service’s number (police department, fire department, ambu- lance) and you choose to test the stored number, make the test call during the late evening or early morning hours to avoid peak demand periods. Also, remain on the line to explain the reason for your call.

ˆCaller 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 sec- ond rings of every call you receive.

The answering system displays this informa- tion after the second ring, and it stores up to 50 Caller ID records for later review. It also shows if 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 and Caller ID, you will hear a tone through the handset when a call comes in, then the Caller ID record appears. If you want to answer the in- coming call, press FLASH. To resume the previous phone conversation, press FLASH again.

If the answering system’s Caller ID memory becomes full, any new call replaces the old- est call record.

CALL WAITING OPTIONS SERVICE

You can also subscribe to Call Waiting Op- tions Service from your phone company. This service provides you with more choices on how to handle a second call when you are already on the phone. You can switch be- tween callers, have a 3-way conference call with both callers, or answer the second caller with a prerecorded message asking then to hold the line.
