Caller ID58About 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 63).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 IDCHRISTINE SMITH888-883-2445NEW10/1510:01AM

Caller ID59Caller ID historyHow the caller ID history (caller ID log) worksThe telephone stores caller ID information about the last 50 incoming calls. 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 all handsets, so changes made using any handset 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 indicatorWhen a handset 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 keep them in the caller ID log, you can press and hold OFF/CANCEL for four seconds when the handset 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.

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).

However, the next letter after the prefix “Mac”, “Mc”, “D’”, “C’” or “O’”, is kept as a capital letter. For example, the “D” in “MacDonald” is kept as a capi-tal letter. Another exception is that “VAN DER” will be changed to “Van der”.If the telephone number from the caller ID information has already been saved in the directory under a different name, the new name will overwrite the old one.••••••••

Answering system82About the answering systemUsing the answering machine and voicemail togetherYou 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.

Answering system83About the answering systemMessage capacityThe answering system can record up to 99 messages, depending on the length of each message. Individual messages can be up to three minutes, 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.” If the memory is full, the answering system announces, “Memory is full,” before message playback. The device screen displays Rec mem full in idle mode. Once the memory is full, you cannot turn the answering system back on if it has been turned off, nor can you record new messages until old ones have been deleted. Memory full displays if you want to turn on the answering system on the handset but there is no memory.Voice promptsThe system provides voice prompts to guide you through the setup procedures on your handsets, message playback, remote access and recording outgoing announcements. The system also provide basic answering system setup via voice guide to record your own announcement, set the number of rings, and set the message alert tone.

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.••••••••

Les appels téléphoniques sont transmis entre le socle du téléphone et le combiné par le biais d’ondes radio, et il se peut que vos conversations téléphoniques soient interceptées par d’autres équipements de réception d’ondes radio au sein de la portée du téléphone sans fil. Pour cette raison, vous ne devez pas considérer les conversations sur un téléphone sans fil comme étant aussi confidentielles que celles d’un téléphone à cordon.Alimentation électrique : La base de ce téléphone sans fil doit être branchée à une prise de courant électrique fonctionnelle. 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.•••••MISES EN GARDE:

Mesures préventives pour les utilisateurs de stimulateurs cardiaques implantés dans l’organismeStimulateurs cardiaques (ne s’applique qu’aux téléphones sans fil numériques) : L’organisme ‘Wireless Technology Research, LLC (WTR)’, une firme de recherche indépendante, a mené une évaluation pluridisciplinaire des interférences entre les téléphones sans fil portatifs et les stimulateurs cardiaques implantés dans l’organisme. Appuyée par l’Administration des aliments et drogues (FDA) des États-unis, la firme WTR recommande aux médecins : Avis aux détenteurs de stimulateurs cardiaquesIls doivent tenir le téléphone sans fil à une distance d’au moins six pouces du stimulateur cardiaque.Ils ne doivent PAS placer le téléphone sans fil directement sur le stimulateur cardiaque, tel que dans une poche de chemise, lorsque celui-ci est en fonction.Ils doivent utiliser le téléphone sans fil en l’appuyant sur l’oreille qui se trouve dans la direction opposée au stimulateur cardiaque.L’étude effectuée par l’organisme WRS n’a pas identifié de risque pour les détenteurs de simulateurs cardiaques causé par les gens qui utilisent un téléphone sans fil à proximité de ceux-ci.Mode ECOLorsque le socle communique avec le combiné, le mode ECO sera activé automatiquement. Ceci réduit la consommation d’énergie selon la distance entre le socle du téléphone et le combiné.Spécifiquement en rapport avec les répondeurs téléphoniquesEnregistrement deux voies : Cet appareil n’émet pas de bips d’avertissement qui permettent de prévenir l’autre partie que vous enregistrez la conversation. Pour assurer votre conformité aux règlements fédéraux ou provinciaux en rapport avec les enregistrements des conversations téléphoniques, vous devriez informer l’autre partie lorsque vous activez l’enregistrement.CONSERVEZ CES INSTRUCTIONS•••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.
