CALLER ID

This telephone provides two types of Caller ID on both the Handset and Base Unit:

Caller ID: Displays the name and number of each caller after the phone begins ringing (requires Caller ID service from your telephone company).

Caller ID on Call Waiting: Shows the name and number of each caller on Call Waiting after you hear the Call Waiting tone (requires Caller ID on Call Waiting service).

A NEW CALL light will flash on the Base Unit to alert you to new CID records. Once the new caller ID records have been reviewed on the Handset, the NEW CALL light will go out.

The phone has a Call Log, which stores the name, number, date, and time of the last 50 calls received. You can review the Call Log to see who called while you were out. You can speed-dial numbers from the Call Log. And you can store names and numbers from the Call Log into your directory.
