51About caller IDThis product supports caller ID services offered by most telephone service providers. 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 waitingCaller 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 don’t 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. To view caller ID log entries with numbers between 16 and 24 digits, you must save the entry to the directory (see page 56).NOTE: You can use this product with regular caller ID service, or you can use this product’s other features without subscribing to caller ID or combined caller ID with call waiting service. •••Caller ID
52Caller IDCaller ID historyHow the caller ID history (call log) worksIf you subscribe to caller ID service provided by your telephone service provider, information about each caller will appear after the first or second ring. If you answer a call before the caller information appears on the screen, it is not saved in the call log.The call log stores up to 50 entries. Each entry may have up to 24 digits for the phone number and 15 characters for the name. You can review, redial, and copy an entry into the directory.Entries appear in reverse chronological order.When the call log is full, the oldest entry is deleted to make room for new incoming call information.L1)X Missed and/or L2)X Missed displays when there are new call log entries that have not been reviewed.Call log empty shows when there are no records in the call log.Only one handset or the telephone base can review the call log at a time. If a handset tries to enter the call log while another handset or the telephone base is already in it, its screen shows Not available at this time.NOTE: If the phone number has more than 24 digits, it will not be saved or shown in the call log.Missed (new) call indicatorWhen there are calls that have not been reviewed in the call log, the corresponding line message, L1)X Missed or       L2)X Missed, shows on the handset and the telephone base.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 keep them in the caller ID history, you can press and hold  OFF/CANCEL on the 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 history become old (reviewed already), and the missed calls message goes away.•••••••                     NEWDELETE SAVERobert Brown888-883-244512:45am    12/311MENUHandsetL1)X MissedL2)X Missed12:45am    12/311
53Caller IDCaller ID operationMemory matchIf the incoming telephone number matches the last seven digits of a telephone number in your directory, the name that appears on the screen matches the corresponding name in your directory. For example, when Christine Smith calls, her name appears as Chris if this is how you entered it into your directory.NOTE: The number shown in the call log is in the format sent by the telephone service provider. The telephone service provider usually delivers 10-digit phone numbers (area code plus phone number). If the last 7-digit of an incoming telephone number does not match a number in your directory, the name appears as it is delivered by the telephone service provider.

68Answering systemAbout the answering systemAnswering system and voicemail indicatorsYour telephone has separate indicators for two different types of voice messages: those left on its built-in answering system and those left on your telephone service provider’s voicemail (fees may apply). Your telephone’s  built-in answering system messages and voicemail messages are separate. Each alerts you to new messages differently.If the   icon and a line number appear on the handset and telephone base, your telephone service provider is indicating that it has new voicemail for you. To listen to your voicemail, dial an access number provided by your telephone service provider, followed by a security code or PIN.If the  /MAIL BOX 1 or  /MAIL BOX 2 button on the telephone base flashes, your digital answering system has new messages for you. To listen to the messages, press the flashing mailbox button. 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 your voicemail service. Using the answering system and voicemail togetherYou can also use the 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. Then, if you are on a call, or if 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.••

94AppendixImportant safety informationEspecially about cordless telephonesPrivacy: The same features that make a cordless telephone convenient create some limitations. 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.Precautions for users of implanted cardiac pacemakersCardiac pacemakers (applies only to digital cordless telephones): Wireless Technology Research, LLC (WTR), an independent research entity, led a multidisciplinary evaluation of the interference between portable wireless telephones and implanted cardiac pacemakers. Supported by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, WTR recommends to  physicians that:Pacemaker patientsShould keep wireless telephones at least six inches from the pacemaker.Should NOT place wireless telephones directly over the pacemaker, such as in a breast pocket, when it is turned ON.Should use the wireless telephone at the ear opposite the pacemaker.WTR’s evaluation did not identify any risk to bystanders with pacemakers from other persons using wireless telephones.Especially about telephone answering systemsTwo-way recording: This unit does not sound warning beeps to inform the other party that the call is being recorded. To ensure that you are in compliance with any federal or state regulations regarding recording a telephone call, you should start the recording process and then inform the other party that you are recording the conversation.SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS••••••••

La prise électrique ne doit pas être contrôlée par un interrupteur mural. Les appels ne peuvent pas être effectués à partir du combiné si la base n’est pas branchée, si elle est hors fonction ou si le courant électrique est coupé.Interférences potentielles aux téléviseurs : Certains téléphones sans fil fonctionnent sur des fréquences pouvant causer des interférences aux téléviseurs et magnétoscopes. Pour réduire ou prévenir de tels parasites, ne pas déposer la base du téléphone sans fil à proximité d’un téléviseur ou magnétoscope, ni directement sur celui-ci. Si votre téléviseur affiche des interférences, éloignez le téléphone sans fil de celui-ci afin de réduire les parasites. Piles rechargeables : Ce produit comporte des piles rechargeables à l’hydrure métallique de nickel. Usez de prudence lorsque vous manipulez de telles piles et veillez à ne pas les  court-circuiter avec des matériaux conducteurs, tels que des bagues, bracelets et clés. La pile ou le conducteur peut surchauffer et vous brûler. Respectez la polarité adéquate entre les piles et le chargeur de piles.Piles rechargeables à l’hydrure métallique de nickel : Jetez ces piles de manière sécuritaire. N’incinérez pas et ne peercez pas les piles. Comme pour les autres piles du même type, si elles sont brûlées ou percées, des matières corrosives peuvent s’en échapper, ce qui risque de causer des brûlures ou autres blessures corporelles.Le sceau de l’organisme de recyclage RBRCMD sur les piles à l’hydrure métallique de nickel signifie que le fabricant de cet appareil participe volontairement au programme industriel visant à reprendre et recycler ce type de piles lorsqu’elles ne servent plus, au sein du territoire des États-Unis et du Canada. Vous devez apporter ces piles chez un détaillant participant ou le centre de recyclage le plus près de chez vous. Ou vous pouvez composer le 1-800-8-BATTERYMD afin de connaître les endroits qui acceptent les piles à l’hydrure métallique de nickel mortes.RBRCMD et 1-800-8-BATTERYMD sont des marques déposées de Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation.••••••••
