Caller ID operation

Information about caller ID with call waiting

This product has a caller ID function with call waiting feature which works with service from your local telephone company.

Caller ID with call waiting lets you see the name and telephone number of the caller before answering the telephone, even when on another call.

It may be necessary to change your telephone service to use this feature. Contact your telephone company 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 do not have any caller ID or call waiting services.

This product can be used with regular caller ID service, or this product’s other features can be used without subscribing to either caller ID or combined caller ID with call waiting service. There are fees for caller ID services, and they may not be available in all areas.

Depending on your service, you may see the caller’s number or the caller’s name and number. This product can provide information only if both you and the caller are in areas offering caller ID service and if both telephone companies use compatible equipment. The time and date are sent by the telephone company along with the call information.

Call number of call log

Appears when the call is missed and un-reviewed.

Time of call Date of call

Information about the last 30 incoming calls is stored in the call log. You can review the call log to find out who has called, return the call, or copy the caller’s name and number into directory.

When the call log is full, the oldest entry is deleted to make room for new incoming call information.

If you answer a call before the information appears on the screen, it will not be saved in the call log.

About names

Names of callers will be displayed only if the information is provided by your local telephone company.

If the incoming telephone number matches an exact number in your directory, the name that appears on screen will match the name in your directory.

For example: If Christine Smith calls, her name will appear as CHRIS if this is how you entered it into your directory.

NOTE: The number shown by your caller ID will be in the format sent by the phone company. The phone company usually delivers 10-digit phone numbers (area code plus phone number). If the telephone number of the person calling does not exactly match a number in your directory, the name will appear as delivered by the phone company. For example if the phone company includes the area code and the directory number does not, the name will appear as delivered by the phone company.

Important safety instructions

Especially About Cordless Telephones

• Privacy: The same features that make a cordless phone convenient create some limitations. Telephone calls are transmitted between the telephone base and handset by radio waves, so there is a possibility that your cordless phone conversations could be intercepted by radio receiving equipment within range of the cordless handset. For this reason, you should not think of cordless phone conversations as being as private as those on corded phones.

• Electrical power: The telephone base of this cordless telephone must be connected to a working electrical outlet. The electrical outlet should not be controlled by a wall switch. Calls cannot be made from the handset if the telephone base is unplugged or switched off, or if the electrical power is interrupted.

• Power adapter: This power adapter is intended to be plugged into a vertical wall outlet or a floor outlet. The prongs are not designed to hold the plug in place if it is plugged into a ceiling, under-the-table or cabinet outlet.

• Potential TV interference: Some cordless telephones operate at frequencies that may cause interference to TVs and VCRs. To minimize or prevent such interference, do not place the telephone base of the cordless telephone near or on top of a TV or VCR. If interference is experienced, moving the cordless telephone farther away from the TV or VCR will often reduce or eliminate the interference.

• Rechargeable batteries: This product contains either Nickel-Cadmium or

Nickel-Metal Hydride rechargeable batteries. Exercise care in handling batteries in order not to short the battery with conducting material such as rings, bracelets, and keys. The battery or conductor may overheat and cause harm.

Observe proper polarity between the battery and the battery charger.

• Nickel-cadmium rechargeable batteries: Must be recycled or disposed of properly. Do not dispose of in household garbage. Do not burn or puncture.

Like other batteries of this type, if burned or punctured, they could release caustic material which could cause injury.

The RBRC

™

Seal means that the manufacturer is voluntarily participating in an industry program to collect and recycle nickel-cadmium rechargeable batteries when taken out of service within the United States. These batteries may be taken to a participating local retailer of replacement batteries or recycling center. Or you may call 1

(800) 8 BATTERY for locations accepting spent nickel-cadmium Batteries.

Precautions for users of implanted cardiac pacemakers

Cardiac pacemakers (applies only to digital cordless telephones):

Wireless Technology Research, LLC (WTR), an independent research entity, led a multidisciplinary evaluation of the interference between portable wireless telephones and implanted cardiac pacemakers. Supported by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, WTR had recommended to physicians that:

Pacemaker patients

• Should keep wireless phones at least six inches from the pacemaker.

• Should NOT place wireless phones directly over the pacemaker, such as in a breast pocket, when it is turned ON.

• Should use the wireless phone at the ear opposite the pacemaker.

WTR’s evaluation did not identify any risk to bystanders with pacemakers from other persons using wireless phones.
