About caller identification
Caller ID with call waiting features in
this telephone let you see who’s call-
ing 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 pro-
vider 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 telephone with regu-
lar caller ID service, or 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 27, 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, the handset(s) and
base can communicate over only a cer-
tain distance — which can vary with
the locations of the telephone base
and handset(s), the weather, the layout,
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/FLASH Move closer to the
base, then press PHONE/FLASH to
answer the call.
If you move out of range during a
telephone conversation, you might
hear noise or interference. To improve
reception, move closer to the base.
If you move out of range without
pressing OFF/CLEAR, your telephone
will be left off the hook. To hang
up properly, walk back toward the
telephone base, periodically pressing
OFF/CLEAR until the call is discon-
nected.
