Important

To use ‘Caller ID’ (display caller), this service has to be activated on your phone line.

Normally you need a separate subscription from your telephone company to activate this

function. If you don’t have the Caller ID function on your phone line, the incoming telephone

numbers will NOT be shown on the display of your telephone.

Belangrijk

Om de ‘Nummerweergave’ te kunnen gebruiken, moet deze dienst geactiveerd

zijn op uw telefoonlijn. Om deze dienst te activeren, hebt U hiervoor meestal een apart

abonnement van uw telefoonmaatschappij nodig. Indien U geen nummerweergavefunctie

hebt op uw telefoonlijn, zullen de inkomende telefoonnummers NIET op

de display van uw toestel verschijnen.

Important

Pour utiliser la fonction ‘Caller ID/Clip’ (affichage de l’appelant), ce service doit être activé sur
votre ligne téléphonique. Généralement, vous avez besoin d’un abonnement séparé de votre

compagnie de téléphone pour activer cette fonction. Si vous n’avez pas la fonction

‘Caller ID - Affichage Appelant’ sur votre ligne téléphonique, les numéros de téléphone

entrants n’apparaîtront PAS sur l’écran de votre téléphone.

Wichtig

Zur Verwendung der ‘Rufnummernanzeige’ muss dieser Dienst erst für Ihre Telefonleitung

freigegeben werden. Zur Aktivierung dieser Dienstleistung benötigen Sie meistens ein

separates Abonnement Ihrer Telefongesellschaft.Wenn Sie für Ihre Telefonleitung keine

Rufnummernanzeigefunktion haben, erscheinen die eingehenden

Telefonnummern NICHT im Display Ihres Gerätes.
