Caller ID with Call Waiting

When you subscribe to Call Waiting service from your local telephone company, this

telephone will display a flashing name and number of the second caller while you are

having a phone conversation with your first caller.

When a new call comes in while you are

talking, you will hear a notification beep from

the HANDSET and the volume is momentarily

muted. The new caller’s name and phone

number, if available, appears on the LCD

Screen.

1. When you receive a “Call Waiting” call and you want to connect the call, press the

/FLASH button and start talking with the second caller. The active call will be

placed on hold.

2. Press the /FLASH button to alternate between calls.

3. Press the button or place the HANDSET on the BASE UNIT to end the call.

“Msg waiting” (Message Waiting)

The Message Waiting LED indicator will blink green when

there is a message for you from your telephone company

if you have subscribed to Voice Mail message service and

if you have requested Visual Message Indication from your

local telephone company. “Msg waiting” will appear on

the LCD Screen in STANDBY mode. (To remove the MSG

WAITING indicator, see page 25 for detail.)

EDIT

Note: This function requires voice mail subscription from the local telephone company.

Furthermore, the local phone company must provide a type of voice mail signaling called

“FSK” (Frequency Shift Key). Not all telephone companies have the visual message waiting

feature available. Please contact your local telephone company to check if this is available

in your area.

Caller List

This phone automatically stores the last 50 calls received. It records call information such as

the caller’s name and telephone number together with the date and time of the call.

The NEW CALL LED indicator will blink red to indicate that you

have a new Caller ID call stored in memory. Also,

“New call:_ _” will be displayed on the LCD Screen with “_ _”

being the number of new calls that have not been reviewed.
