Advanced operation Advanced operation About caller ID The caller ID with call waiting feature in this telephone lets you see the name and telephone number of the caller before answering the call, even when you're already on a call. These features require services provided by your local telephone company. Contact your telephone company if: • you have both caller ID and call waiting, but as separate services (you may need combined service), • you have only caller ID service, or only call waiting service, or • you do not subscribe to any caller ID or call waiting services but wish to try these services. You can use this telephone with regular caller ID service, and you can use its other features without subscribing to either caller ID or combined caller ID with call waiting service. There may be fees for these services, and these services may not be available in all areas. The caller ID features will work only if both you and the caller are in areas offering caller ID service, and if both telephone companies use compatible equipment. Call log If you subscribe to caller ID service, information about each caller will be displayed after the first ring or second ring. • The call log can store up to 50 entries. • You can review, redial, and copy the entry into the directory. • Entries are displayed in reverse chronological order, i.e. from the most recent entry to the earliest entry. • When the call log is full, the oldest entry is deleted to make room for new incoming call information. • XX MISSED CALL(S) and NEW will be displayed if there are new call log entries (including missed and un-reviewed calls). When all the missed calls in the call log have been reviewed, the missed calls indicator will no longer display. • CALL LOG EMPTY will be displayed if there is no record in the call log. The call log can be accessed by pressing CID, or by pressing the center NavKey , then CALL LOG then the center NavKey again. The name (if available) and telephone number of the caller will be shown. • Due to regional service differences, the caller ID information may not be available for every incoming call. In addition, the callers may intentionally block their names and/or telephone numbers. • The time on all handsets is automatically set and updated with incoming caller ID information if you subscribe to this service. www.vtechphones.com 21
