Digital Spread Spectrum Technology utilizes a “wider frequency band” vs. a “single narrow band”
used in standard digital transmissions. The 2.4 GHz frequency range was recently released to commercial
communications. The result is a more secure conversation with the clarity of digital sound, extended
range, and minimal interference from other cordless phones.
Random Code™ digital security automatically selects one of over 65,000 codes for the handset and base.
These features enhance your phone’s security and also prevent unauthorized calls as a result of your
phone being activated by other equipment.

CALLER ID
You must subscribe to Caller ID service to use this feature.
When the telephone rings, the Caller ID feature allows you to view the caller’s name and phone
number on the display before you answer the phone.
The handset displays the phone number of the incoming call, the name, time, and the number
of calls. Additionally, you can dial the displayed number and store the information for
memory dialing.
Setting Caller ID options
There are three Caller ID setup options available; they are AutoTalk, CIDCW (Caller ID on Call
Waiting), and Area Code.
AutoTalk allows you to answer the phone without pressing the button. If the phone rings
when AutoTalk is on, simply remove the handset from the base and the phone automatically
answers the call. Or if the handset is not on the base press any key to answer the call. If the
phone rings when AutoTalk is off, you must press to answer the call.
