to both AC power and a modular telephone jack. You’ll connect the
handset charger to ACpower only. For more information, please see

Choosing the Best Location
Choose a location for the base near an electrical outlet and a telephone
jack. This phone requires a modular telephone jack and a standard electrical
outlet (110v AC) not controlled by a wall switch. For optimum
performance,install the base on the highest floor of your home and away
from other cordless telephones.

combined Caller ID with Call Waiting serv i c e.

areas offering Caller ID service and if both telephone companies use
compatible equipment.

About Call History
This phone assigns each incoming call a number from 1 to 90. The most
recent call will have the highest number. When the memory is full,the
oldest call information is deleted to make room for new incoming call
information.
If you answer a call before information appears on the screen, it may not
be in the call history.
Call history information is stored independently at the base and at the
handset. If you make changes to call records in one location,other histor y
lists are not affected.
