Using Caller ID, Call Waiting, and Redial Lists
If you subscribe to Caller ID service from your phone company, your phone will show you the caller’s phone number
and name (if available) whenever a call comes in. If you subscribe to Caller ID on Call Waiting, the phone will also
show you the name and the number of any call that comes in while you’re on the line.
Using the Caller ID List
You can store up to thirty Caller ID numbers in each station. Caller ID records are
stored from newest to oldest. Once your Caller ID list is full, the oldest record will be
automatically deleted when a new call is received.
To open the Caller ID list, press
[ ] (on the right side of the four-way key). The
phone will show the number of new Caller ID records (that is, records you have not
reviewed yet) and the total number of stored records. Use
[ ] and [ ] to scroll
through the list. (New records have an asterisk next to the received time.)

What’s this “add or delete a 1” about?
Any phone number in the Caller ID records might (or might not!) have a “1” at the front, depending on how
different phone companies send the Caller ID information.
The phone dials the number exactly as it appears in the Caller ID record.
If the phone number is a long distance or toll call, but the Caller ID record does not have a “1” in front of the
number, press
[
*
/tone] to add it. If the phone number is a local or non-toll call, but the Caller ID record has a
“1” in front of the number, press
[
*
/tone] to delete it.
