VERY IMPORTANT: You must call your local phone company and tell the representative that you have a Caller ID/Call Waiting device that integrates the two services (called Type II Caller ID). Some phone companies aren't equipped to integrate the two services, which means only the Caller ID part of your unit will work. The phone companies that do have the ability to integrate Call Waiting and Caller ID must program your telephone line so the two services work together. You need to call and ask them to do this.
CAUTION: When using telephone equipment, there are basic safety instructions that should always be followed. Refer to the IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS provided with this product and save them for future reference.
