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
You don’t subscribe to any Caller ID or Call Waiting services.
You can use this product with regular Caller ID service, and you can use this product’s other

ID service, and if both telephone companies use compatible equipment.

TELEPHONE OPERATION
Operating Range
This cordless telephone operates within the maximum power allowed by
the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). Even so, this handset and
base can communicate over only a certain distance — which can vary with
the locations of the base and handset, the weather, and the construction of
your home or office. For best performance, keep the base antenna fully
upright.
If you receive a call while you are out of range, the handset might not
ring — or if it does ring, the call might not connect when you press PHONE .
Move closer to the base, then press PHONE to answer the call.
If you move out of range during a phone conversation, you might
hear noise or interference. To improve reception, move closer to the base.
If you move out of range without pressing OFF, your phone will be
left “off the hook.” To hang up properly, walk back into range, periodically
pressing OFF .

wet or standing in water. If your Base Unit should fall into water, DO NOT RETRIEVE
