About caller ID
The caller ID with call waiting feature in this telephone lets you see the name
and telephone number of the caller before answering the call, even when
already on a call. These features require services provided by your local
telephone service provider.
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, or
•
you do not subscribe to any caller ID or call waiting services but wish to try
•
these services.
You can use this telephone 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 these services
may not be available in all areas.
The 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.

•
installing your telephone as far away as possible from the following electronic
devices: wireless routers, radios, radio towers, pager towers, cellular telephones,
digital telephones, intercoms, room monitors, televisions, VCRs, personal computers,
kitchen appliances, and other cordless telephones.
If your telephone is plugged in with a modem or a surge protector, plug the telephone
•
(or modem/surge protector) into a different location. If this doesn’t solve the problem,
re-locate your telephone or modem farther apart from each other, or use a different
surge protector.
The layout of your home or ofce might be limiting the operating range. Try moving
•
the telephone base to another location, preferably a higher location for better
reception.
Disconnect the telephone base from the telephone jack and plug in a corded
•
telephone. If calls are still not clear, contact the local telephone service provider
