Caller ID allows you to see the name, number, date and time of calls. The available caller ID information will appear after the first or second ring. Information about caller ID with call waiting Caller ID with call waiting lets you see the name and telephone number of the caller before answering the call, even while on another call. It may be necessary to change your telephone service to use this feature. Contact your telephone service provider if:
You have both caller ID and call waiting, but as separate services (you may need to combine these services). You have only caller ID service, or only call waiting service. You dont subscribe to caller ID or call waiting services. There are fees for caller ID services. In addition, services may not be available in all areas. This product can provide information only if both you and the caller are in areas offering caller ID service and if both telephone service providers use compatible equipment. The time and date, along with the call information, are from the telephone service provider. Caller ID information may not be available for every incoming call. Callers may intentionally block their names and/or telephone numbers. You can only view a maximum of 15 digits of every caller ID log entry. NOTE: You can use this product with regular caller ID service, or you can use this products other features without subscribing to caller ID or combined caller ID with call waiting service. 95 Caller ID Caller ID log How the caller ID log works The telephone stores caller ID information about the last 50 incoming calls in the telephone base. Entries are stored in reverse chronological order. The phone deletes the oldest entry when the log is full to make room for new calls. This information is common to the telephone base and all handsets, so changes made using any handset or the telephone base are reflected in all other devices. If you answer a call before the information appears on the screen, it does not show in the caller ID log. NOTE: Each entry may have up to 24 digits for the phone number and 15 characters for the name. Missed (new) call indicator When a handset or the telephone base is in idle mode and has new or missed calls, its screen shows XX Missed calls. All new and missed entries are counted as missed calls. Each time you review a new caller ID log entry (indicated by NEW on the screen), the number of missed calls decreases by one. If you do not want to review the missed calls one by one, but still want to OFF/CLEAR on the keep them in the caller ID log, you can press and hold handset for four seconds when the handset is idle, or press and hold CANCEL on the telephone base for four seconds when the telephone base is idle. You will hear a confirmation tone. All the entries in the caller ID log become old (reviewed already), and the missed calls message goes away. Memory match If the incoming telephone number matches the last 7 digits of a telephone number in your directory, the name that appears on the screen matches the corresponding name in your directory. For example, if Christine Smith calls, her name appears as Chris if this is how you entered it into your directory. NOTE: The number shown in the caller ID log will be in the format sent by the telephone service provider. The telephone service provider usually delivers ten-digit phone numbers
(area code plus telephone number). If the telephone number of the caller does not match a number in your directory, the name will appear as it is delivered by the telephone service provider. 96 Caller ID Caller ID operation Review the caller ID log Review the caller ID log to find out who called, to return the call, or to copy the callers name and number into your directory.

To listen to your voicemail, dial an access number provided by your telephone service provider, followed by a security code or PIN. Some telephone service providers bundle or combine multiple services like voicemail and call waiting, so you may not be aware that you have voicemail. To check what services you have and how to access them, contact your telephone service provider. To use your voicemail service rather than the answering system, turn off the answering system. To use the answering system rather than your voicemail service, contact your telephone service provider to deactivate the voicemail service. 122 Answering system About the answering system Using the answering machine and voicemail together You can also use your telephone answering system and voicemail together by setting your built-in answering system to answer before voicemail answers, as described below. To learn how to program your voicemail settings, contact your telephone service provider. If you are on a call, or the answering system is busy recording a message and you receive another call, the second caller can leave a voicemail message. Set your answering system to answer calls at least two rings earlier than your voicemail is set to answer. For example, if your voicemail answers after six rings, set your answering system to answer after four rings. Some voicemail providers may program the delay before answering calls in seconds instead of rings. In this case, allow six seconds per ring when determining the appropriate setting. Message capacity The answering system can record up to 99 messages, depending on the length of each message. Individual messages can be up to three minutes
(see Recording time on page 121), and the maximum recording time is approximately 22 minutes. The actual recording time depends on individual message characteristics. Messages remain available for replay until you delete them. When there are new messages (including memos) on the answering system, the number of messages stored shows in the message counter. If the answering system has less than three minutes of recording time left, it announces, Less than three minutes to record, before message playback at the handset or the telephone base. Rec mem low displays on the device screen in idle mode. When you turn on the answering system at the telephone base, it announces, Calls will be answered. Less than three minutes to record.

You must subscribe to this service from your telephone service provider for this feature to work on your phone. The caller may be calling from an area that supports caller ID. Both your and your callers telephone service providers must use caller ID compatible equipment. If you subscribe to high-speed Internet service (DSL - digital subscriber line) through your telephone line, you must install a DSL filter between the telephone line cord and the telephone wall jack (page 9). The filter prevents noise and caller ID problems resulting from DSL interference. Please contact your DSL service provider for more information about DSL filters. System does not receive caller ID when on a call. Make sure you subscribe to caller ID with call waiting features from your telephone service provider. Caller ID features works only if both you and the caller are in areas offering caller ID service, and if both telephone service providers use compatible equipment. Incomplete messages. If a caller leaves a very long message, part of it may be lost when the system disconnects the call after the maximum recording time you have set. If the caller pauses for longer than seven seconds, the system stops recording and disconnects the call. If the systems memory becomes full during a message, the system stops recording and disconnects the call. If the callers voice is very soft, the system may stop recording and disconnect the call. Difficulty hearing messages. Press VOLUME/ to increase the telephone base speaker volume. Press DIR/VOLUME to adjust the message playback volume on a handset. 155 Appendix Troubleshooting System does not answer after the correct number of rings. Make sure that the answering system is on. ANS ON should show on the handset and the /ANSWER ON light on the telephone base should be on. If toll saver is activated, the number of rings changes to two when you have new messages stored (page 118). If the memory is full or the system is off, the system will answer after ten rings. In some cases, the answering system is affected by the ringing system used by your telephone service provider. If you subscribe to voicemail service, change the number of rings so that your answering system answers before your voicemail (page 118). To determine how many rings activate your voicemail, contact your telephone service provider. If there is a fax machine connected to the same telephone line, try disconnecting the fax machine. If that solves the problem, consult your fax machine documentation for information on compatibility with answering systems. System does not respond to remote commands. Make sure to enter your remote access code correctly (page 119). Make sure you are calling from a touch-tone phone. When you dial a number, you should hear tones. If you hear clicks, the phone is not a touch-tone telephone and cannot activate the answering system. The answering system may not detect the remote access code while your announcement is playing. Try waiting until the announcement is over before entering the code. There may be interference on the phone line you are using. Press dialing keys firmly. System does not record messages. Make sure the answering system is on. ANS ON should show on the handset and the /ANSWER ON light on the telephone base should be on. Make sure the memory of the answering system is not full. 156 Appendix Troubleshooting If you subscribe to voicemail service, change the number of rings so that your answering system answers before your voicemail (page 118).

When you record your announcement, make sure you speak in a normal tone of voice, about nine inches from the handset or the telephone base. Make sure there is no background noise (TV, music, etc.) while recording. New voicemail and show on the screens, and I dont know why. Your telephone has both a built-in answering system and voicemail indication. If New voicemail and appear on the screens, then your telephone has received a signal from your telephone service provider that you have a voicemail message waiting for you to retrieve from them. Contact your telephone service provider for more information on how to access your voicemail. I cannot retrieve voicemail messages. Your telephone has both a built-in answering system and voicemail indication. They are independent features and each alerts you to new messages differently (page 122). If you subscribe to voicemail service from your telephone service provider, contact your telephone service provider for more information on how to access your voicemail. Ive set my LCD language to Spanish or French and I dont know how to change it back to English. Press MENU on your handset or base in idle mode, then enter 364# on the handset or base.

Telephone calls are transmitted between the telephone base and the handset by radio waves, so there is a possibility that your cordless telephone conversations could be intercepted by radio receiving equipment within range of the cordless handset. For this reason, you should not think of cordless telephone conversations as being as private as those on corded telephones. Electrical power: The telephone base of this cordless telephone must be connected to a working electrical outlet which is not controlled by a wall switch. Calls cannot be made from the handset if the telephone base is unplugged, switched off or if the electrical power is interrupted. Potential TV interference: Some cordless telephones operate at frequencies that may cause interference to TVs and VCRs. To minimize or prevent such interference, do not place the telephone base of the cordless telephone near or on top of a TV or VCR. If interference is experienced, moving the cordless telephone farther away from the TV or VCR will often reduce or eliminate the interference. Rechargeable batteries: This product contains nickel-metal hydride rechargeable batteries. Exercise care in handling batteries in order not to create a short circuit with conductive material such as rings, bracelets and keys. The battery or conductor may overheat and cause harm. Observe proper polarity between the battery and the battery charger. Nickel-metal hydride rechargeable batteries: Dispose of these batteries in a safe manner. Do not burn or puncture. Like other batteries of this type, if burned or punctured, they could release caustic material which could cause injury. The RBRC Seal means that the manufacturer is voluntarily participating in an industry program to collect and recycle nickel-metal hydride rechargeable batteries when taken out of service within the United States. These batteries may be taken to a participating local retailer of replacement batteries or recycling center. You may call 1-800-8-BATTERY for locations accepting spent Ni-MH batteries. RBRC and 1-800-8-BATTERY are registered trademarks of the Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation. 161 Appendix Important safety information Precautions for users of implanted cardiac pacemakers Cardiac pacemakers (applies only to digital cordless telephones):
