INTRODUCTION
CAUTION: When using telephone equipment, there are basic safety
instructions that should always be followed. Refer to the IMPORTANT
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS provided with this product and save them for
future reference.
Congratulations on purchasing this GE cordless telephone/answering
system with Call Waiting Caller ID.This telephone has been designed to be
simple to use, however, you can reach its full potential more quickly by
taking a few minutes to read this instruction book.This telephone is a
multifunction product for use with Call Waiting and Caller ID services
available from your local telephone company.
Your Caller ID Call Waiting phone allows you to:
•view the name and telephone number of a caller while you are on the
phone (Call Waiting Caller ID).
•identify callers before you answer the phone.
•view the time and date of each incoming call.
•record up to 40 Caller ID messages sequentially in each handset and
the base.
•know who called while you are on the other line or when you
were away.
•screen unwanted calls, eliminate harassment from annoying calls, or to
get prepared before answering a call.

IMPORTANT: Because cordless phones operate on electricity, you should
have at least one phone in your home that isn’t cordless, in case the power in
your home goes out.
IMPORTANT: In order to use all of the features of this telephone, you must
subscribe to two separate services available from your local telephone
company: the standard Name/Number Caller ID Service to know who is
calling when the phone rings and Caller ID with Call Waiting Service to know
who is calling while you are on the phone.
INSTALLATION NOTE: Some cordless telephones operate at frequencies
that may cause interference to nearby TVs, microwave ovens, and VCRs. To
minimize or prevent such interference, the base of the cordless telephone
should not be placed near or on top of a TV, microwave ovens, or VCR. If such
interference continues, move the cordless telephone farther away from these
appliances. Certain other communications devices may also use the 2.4 GHz
frequency for communication, and, if not properly set, these devices may
interfere with each other and/or your new telephone. Typical devices that may
use the 2.4 GHz frequency for communication include wireless audio/video
senders, wireless computer networks, multi-handset cordless telephone
systems, and some long-range cordless telephone systems.

BEFORE YOU BEGIN
PARTS CHECKLIST
Make sure your package includes the items shown here.
TELEPHONE JACK REQUIREMENTS
To use this phone, you need an RJ11C (CA11A) type
modular telephone jack, which might look like the one
pictured here, installed in your home. If you don’t have
a modular jack, call your local phone company to find
out how to get one installed.
DIGITAL SECURITY SYSTEM
Your cordless phone uses a digital security system to protect against false
ringing, unauthorized access, and charges to your phone line. When you
place the handset in the base, the unit verifies its security code. After a
power outage or battery replacement, you should place the handset in the
base for about 30 seconds to reset the code.
