BEFORE YOU BEGIN

Choosing a Location for Your Phone

For best reception quality choose a location for the base unit of your new
telephone:

• away from microwave ovens

• away from TVs,VCRs,stereo equipment and computers
(Cordless telephones operate at a radio frequency that may
cause interference with these types of equipment.)

• away from extreme heat or cold. (For example:radiators,
direct sunlight,air ducts,air conditioning and open windows)

• away from other cordless telephones (Note:2.4 GHz Digital
Spread Spectrum Telephones may cause interference with
this telephone.)

• away from metal walls or cabinets,and

• near an electrical outlet not controlled by a wall switch.

About Caller Identification (Caller ID)

This product has a Caller ID with Call Waiting feature that works with
service from your local phone service provider.

Caller ID with Call Waiting lets you see who’s calling before you answer
the phone,even when you’re on another call.

You may need to change your phone service to use this feature. Contact
your phone service provider if:

• You have both Caller ID and Call Waiting,but as separate services
(you may need combined service)

• You have only Caller ID service,or only Call Waiting service

• You don’t subscribe to any Caller ID or Call Waiting services.

You can use this product with regular Caller ID service,and you can use
this product’s other features without subscribing to either Caller ID or
combined Caller ID with Call Waiting service.

There are fees for Caller ID services,and they may not be available in
all areas.

This product can provide information only if both you and the caller are
in areas offering Caller ID service,and if both telephone companies use
compatible equipment.
