antenna in most strong signal areas. be sure the power cord is 

stretched to its longest length. Do not coil or bunch the cord together.

Caller ID (CID) is a service available from your local telephone 

company. For Caller ID to work on this system, you must subscribe to 

Caller ID service.

phone company and can store up to 70 calls for later review.

and number of new calls to be reviewed. It is displayed until any 

button is pressed. Within 60 seconds of receiving a new call, the 

summary screen is displayed and the NEW CAll indicator comes on.

company to your Caller ID telephone between the first and second ring.
