My caller ID
isn’t working
• Caller ID is a subscription service. You must subscribe to this
service from your local telephone company for this feature to
work on your phone.
• Your caller must be calling from an area that supports caller ID.
• Both you and your caller’s telephone companies must use caller
ID compatible equipment.
• Relocate your telephone base to a higher location. The
phone will have better reception when not installed in a low
area.
• If the other phones in your home are having the same prob-
lem, the problem is in your wiring or local service. Contact
your local telephone company (charges may apply).
