Shared Call Log

The caller ID log is stored in the base, and is shared by the system handsets. Changes made at the base or a handset will be reflected in all handsets and the base.

If the number of an incoming call matches an entry in your directory, the name will display exactly how you’ve entered it in the phonebook. For example, if Christine Smith calls, her name will appear as Chris if that is how you entered it into the phonebook.

Your phone has a caller ID (CID) with call waiting feature that works with service from your local phone service provider. Caller ID with call waiting lets you see who’s calling before you answer the phone, even when you’re on another call.

You may need to change your phone service to use this feature. Contact your service provider if:

•You have both caller ID and call waiting, but as separate services (you may need combined service)

•You have only caller ID service, or only caller waiting service.

•You don’t subscribe to any caller ID or call waiting services.

You can use this product with regular caller ID service, and you can use this product’s other features without subscribing to either caller ID or combined caller ID with call waiting service.

There are fees for caller ID services, and they may not be available in all areas.

This product can provide information only if both you and the caller are in areas offering caller ID service, and if both telephone companies use compatible equipment.
