CALLER ID

Caller ID is a subscription service available from your telephone service provider and is required for the Caller ID features to operate.

To receive Caller ID information for a Call Waiting call, you must subscribe to the combined Call Waiting Caller ID service from your telephone service provider. Even if you subscribe to both Caller ID and Call Waiting services separately, it is possible that you are not subscribed to the combined service.

The 420 will store and display on demand the 200 most recent caller ID records.
