To activate the Call Trace feature:
1. Hang up immediately from an offensive phone call.
2. Wait 10 seconds, pick up the handset, and dial 57.
3. If the call trace is successful, you will receive instructions
on how to deliver the call trace information to the local
law enforcement authorities. If the call trace was not
successful, you will receive an error message.
Long Distance Alert
With this feature, incoming long distance calls have a special
ring to distinguish them from local calls.The long distance ringing
pattern contains three rings. If you also have Call Waiting, an
incoming long distance call will provide a distinctive call waiting
tone with three beeps.
If you ever receive a
harassing or threatening
phone call, you now
have the ability to
trace the call.
With this feature,
you can always distinguish
an incoming long
distance call from a
local call because of
the special ring.

You can prevent your phone from being used to make or receive certain types of calls,
including collect calls, calls billed to a third party, international calls, local toll and long
distance calls, operator calls, and directory assistance calls.
