CALLER ID OPERATION

If you subscribe to Caller ID service, the phone company sends information about the call, as well as the time and date, between the first and second rings of every call you receive.

The ET-929 displays this information when it receives a call, and it stores up to 30 Caller ID records for later review. It also shows if the name or number were unavailable or blocked by the caller (see “Caller ID Messages” on Page 21).

If you subscribe to Call Waiting with Caller ID, you hear a tone through the handset when a call comes in, then the Caller ID record appears. To answer the new call, press FLASH. To resume the previous call, press FLASH again.

If the phone’s Caller ID memory be- comes full, any new call replaces the oldest call record.

To scroll through the Caller ID records, repeatedly press s or t.

The first line of the record shows the caller’s name, and the second line shows the caller’s phone number. If the name or number is longer than 12 char- acters, the display shows the first 12 characters, then, after about four sec- onds, the rest of the name or number scrolls onto the display.

To see the date and time of a call, press (8) while the Caller ID record is on the display. The date, time, and record num- ber appear. To return to the record,

press again.
