Introduction

Thank you for purchasing 9417CW telephone. We think you’ll find it’s full of exciting features. With a personal Directory and a Callers list, your new two-line telephone is designed to take full advantage of the latest services of fered by your local telephone company.
When you subscribe to services such as Calling Line Identification and Call Waiting Iden­tification† through your local telephone company, your 9417CW will show you all the caller information you’ll need on its three-line back-lit display. For example, before you even answer a call you’ll know who is calling, even if it’s a Call Waiting call. And Call Waiting Identification information can appear on two telephone extensions at the same time so that someone at either extension can initiate the switch to a Call Waiting call. Your telephone will also tell you how many new callers you have.
You can set up a personal Directory in which you can enter up to 100 names and numbers, and your Callers List will log up to 100 incoming calls. The Options List and Setup List make it easy for you to personalize your telephone, and the back-lit three-line display pro­vides walk-through prompting that makes all of the many features and options ev en easier to customize. Please read on for more information on the many features of your 9417CW.
The names of these services may vary from area to area.
