Problem Suggestion
The  system  does  not 
receive  caller  ID  or 
the  system  does  not 
display caller ID during 
call waiting.
Make sure you subscribe to caller ID with call waiting features provided by the local telephone 
company. 
The caller may not be calling from an area which supports caller ID.
Both you and  the  caller’s telephone companies must  use equipment which  are  compatible 
with caller ID service.
Caller ID data may not be displayed on your phone if you answer a call at or before the second ring. 
This would also apply to an answering device that answers the call at or before the second ring.
If you subscribe to DSL Internet service, install a DSL lter to the telephone line between the 
telephone base and the telephone line jack. Contact your DSL service provider for lters and 
installation instructions.

Caller ID entries do not 
match  the  numbers  I 
need to dial.
Although the call log entries you receive have 10 digits, (the area code plus the seven-digit 
number), in some areas, you may need to dial only the seven digits, or a 1 plus the seven digits, 
or a 1 plus the area code plus the seven digits. You can change the number of digits that you 
dial from the call log. 
While reviewing the call log, press # repeatedly to display these dialing options for local and 
long distance numbers before dialing or saving the telephone number.
