Welcome

Welcome to your new CaptionCall® phone. This phone features a large, easy-to­read screen that displays written captions of what callers say to reinforce anything
you might miss. The CaptionCall phone is also amplified, allowing you to increase
the decibels to a level you are comfortable hearing.

How CaptionCall Works

Similar to captioned television, but only available to people with hearing loss,
CaptionCall uses advanced technology and a Captioning Agent to quickly provide
written captions of what callers say on a large, easy-to-read screen. It works like a
regular telephone: simply dial and answer calls as usual and speak and listen using a
phone handset like always.

Phone Features

Your CaptionCall phone combines regular telephone features with a touchscreen
display. The touchscreen display is a unique and powerful feature of the
CaptionCall phone. The most important use of the display is to show the text of
your captioned telephone calls. Other uses for the display are:

• To show you a list of your recent and missed calls

• To allow you to create and manage a list of contacts

• To display your saved calls

• To caption your voicemail and/or answering machine messages

• To allow you to change the phone’s settings

• To display built-in help text for the current screen

The CaptionCall phone also features speakerphone, volume control and a large,
back-lit keypad.
