OPERATION
RECEIVING CALLS
Caller ID is a service provided by your telephone company. When you subscribe to this service, the telephone company sends the caller’s telephone number (and name, if available) and the call’s date and time between the first and second rings. The system receives and displays this information for each call and updates the display with the current date and time. The display also shows if caller information is not avail- able or if the number is blocked by the sender (see “Dis- played Call Information” on Page 26).
CALL flashes during a new incoming call, the new call indi- cator flashes, and the call record shows for 20 seconds, then the number of new calls and NEW CALLS appears. The new call indicator slowly flashes until you review a call (see “Reviewing Call Records” on Page 24).
Note: If you have a phone that has a hold feature, we do not recommend using hold for very long. The Caller ID informa- tion sent by the phone company might disconnect a caller on hold if a new call comes in.
