About Caller ID with Call Waiting

This product has a Caller ID with CallWaiting feature that lets you see

who’s calling while you’re on another call.

To use this feature,you may need to change your phone service. Contact

your local phone service provider if you have:

• no Caller ID or CallWaiting service

• either Caller ID or CallWaiting as a single service

• both Caller ID and CallWaiting,but as separate services (you may

need combined service).

You can also use this product with regular Caller ID service or no Caller ID

services. To turn off this phone’s Caller ID with CallWaiting feature,see

the FEATURE SETUP section of this manual.

There may be fees for Caller ID services,and such services may not be

available in all areas. This phone 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.

About Home and Local Area Codes

Always program your home area code,and,if you need them,your local area

codes (up to four — see page 9). Programming these area codes will

change how numbers are displayed in the call history,and will allow for

correct operation of the Display Dial feature (see page 39).

If you dial For Enter as Home Code

7 digits Calls within your Your home area code

(phone number, no area code) home area code

10 digits Calls within your 000

(area code + phone number) home area code

— OR —

11 digits

(1+ area code + phone number)

If you dial For Enter as Local Codes

11 digits All calls outside No LocalArea Codes

(1+ area code + phone number) your home area code

10 digits Some calls outside Area codes that do

(area code + phone number) your home area code not require a “1”

If you dial 10 digits (area code plus phone number) for calls within your own area

code, include your area code as a Local Area Code.
