How Caller ID works

If you subscribe to Caller ID service provided by your local phone company, information about each caller will be displayed at both the cordless handset and the base after the first or second ring.

With most incoming calls, the screen shows the name of the caller (up to 15 alphanumeric characters includ- ing spaces) in the top row, and the caller's telephone number, including the area code (up to 11 digits includ- ing area code) in the second row.The third row shows the date and time of the call, the total number of Caller ID entries already stored in the handset memory, as well as the low-battery icon if the battery is low.The low battery icon will be displayed if the battery on the handset is low.

If the caller has made 2 or more consecutive calls, the repeat tag (*) will be displayed in the top right corner of the screen.

Caller ID and Call Waiting Functions

There may be a charge for the caller ID and call waiting services provided by your local telephone company.

Contact your telephone 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 Call Waiting service, or

•you currently do not have Caller ID or Call Waiting services.
