About Caller Identification

Caller ID with Call Waiting features in this telephone let you see who’s calling before you answer the phone, even when you’re on another call. These features require services provided by your local telephone company.

Contact your telephone 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 phone with regular Caller ID service, and you can use its other features without subscribing to either Caller ID or combined Caller ID with Call Waiting service. There may be fees for these services, and they may not be available in all areas.

Caller ID features will work only if both you and the caller are in areas offering Caller ID service, and if both telephone companies use compatible equipment.

See Caller ID Operation, beginning on page 20, for more details about how these features work.

Telephone operating range

This cordless telephone operates with the maximum power allowed by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). Even so, this handset and base can communicate over only a certain distance — which can vary with the locations of the base and handset, the weather, and the construction of your home or office.

If you receive a call while you are out of range, the handset might not

ring — or if it does ring, the call might not connect when you press PHONE. Move closer to the base, then press

PHONE to answer the call.

If you move out of range during a phone conversation, you might hear

noise or interference. To improve reception, move closer to the base.

If you move out of range without pressing OFF, your phone will be left

off the hook. To hang up properly, walk back toward the telephone base, periodically pressing OFF until the call is disconnected.
