Caller ID
Caller ID allows you to see who’s calling before
you answer the phone. If your telephone has a
display screen, the name and telephone number
associated with an incoming call will appear on
the screen.
How to use:
1. When you receive a call, wait until your
telephone completes the first ringing signal.
2. The telephone number calling you and the
name associated with that number in the
telephone company records will automatically
appear on your Caller ID display screen.
Notes:
• Caller ID requires a display telephone or an
add-on display unit.
• If a letter “P” or “Private” appears on your
display after the first ring, the caller may have
blocked the display of their name and number
before placing the call.
• If “unknown name,” “unknown number,” “out
of area” or “O” appears, the caller is in an area
that does not support Caller ID services.

Call Waiting

trying to reach you while you’re already on the
phone.
How it works:

person calling you hears normal ring tone.

you a second call is waiting.

or “Flash” button on your phone. While
you talk with one caller, the other caller
will automatically be placed on hold. Each
conversation remains private.
To alternate between callers:
1. Press and quickly release the “Receiver”
or “Flash” button on your phone. While
you talk with one caller, the other caller
will automatically be placed on hold. Each
conversation remains private.
