Using Caller ID and Call Waiting

If you subscribe to Caller ID from your phone company, your phone will show you the caller’s phone number and name (if available) whenever a call comes in. If you subscribe to both Call Waiting and Caller ID, the phone also shows you the name and the number of any call that comes in while you’re on the line.

If your telephone provider supports seven-digit dialing, you can save your local area code so it does not display in the Caller ID list. See Seven-Digit Dialing on page 39 for more information.

Using the Caller ID List

You can store up to 100 Caller ID numbers in each handset. Your phone shares memory between your Phonebook and Caller ID entries. Once you reach your maximum phonebook entries of 100, Caller ID information will not be stored (but it will still display when the call comes in).

To open the Caller ID list, press [ ] (on the right side of the four-way key). The phone will show the number of new Caller ID records and the total number of stored records. Use [] and [] to scroll through the list, or enter a letter on the keypad to jump to the first Caller ID name that starts with that letter.

Making a Call from a Caller ID Record

2.Use [] and [] to find the Caller ID record you want to dial.

3.To add (or delete) a “1” to the beginning of the displayed phone number, press [*/tone/<].

4.Press [/flash] or [ ] to dial the number.

Note: You can also press [ /flash] or [ phone number you want to dial, press
