Caller ID System Operation
Caller ID with Call Waiting
When you subscribe to Call Waiting service from your local telephone company, this telephone will display the name and number of the second caller while you are having a phone conversation with the first caller.
When a new call comes in while you are talking, you will hear a notification beep from the Handset and the volume is momentarily muted. The new caller’s name and phone number, if available, appears on the display.

“MSG WAITING” (Message Waiting)
The Message Waiting LED indicator will blink when there is a message for you from your telephone company if you have subscribed to Voice Mail message service and if you have requested Visual Message Indication from your local telephone company. “MSG WAITING” will appear on the LCD Screen in standby mode. (To remove the MSG WAITING indicator, see page 25.)
NOTE: This function requires voice mail subscription from the local telephone company. Furthermore, the local phone company must provide a type of voice mail signaling called “FSK” (Frequency Shift Key). Not all telephone companies have the visual message waiting feature available. Please contact your local telephone company to check if this is available in your area.
