INSTALLING AND REPLACING THE BATTERIES  
Your Caller ID phone uses 4 AA-size alkaline batteries for  
receiving and storing Caller ID records and for storing the  
numbers you use for memory dialing, pulse dialing, and redial.  
IMPORTANT: You will have approximately 90 seconds to replace  
the batteries before the memories stored are lost. Please read the  
instructions before replacing the batteries and have the batteries  
ready to be inserted beforehand.  
DIALING BACK  
When reviewing Caller ID records, you can dialback the  
numbers shown on the display by pressing the DIAL button.  
NOTE: If PICKUP PHONE shows in the display, no other changes  
to the number can be made. The information sent from the  
telephone company is known to be a valid number for dialing back  
(used only in very limited areas). Once you pickup the phone, the  
number is automatically dialed.

CAUTION: When using telephone equipment, there are  
SETTING YOUR LOCAL AREA CODE  
basic safety instructions that should always be followed. Refer  
to the IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS provided with  
this product and save them for future reference.  
The telephone uses the programmed area codes to determine  
the number format to display when a valid Caller ID signal is  
received. Numbers that match the local area code are displayed  
as seven digits and are used for dialing back previous numbers.  
Entering your local area code will also help you immediately  
know if the call is local or long distance when viewing the CID  
records in the display.  
7. The unit is properly installed if you pick up the handset and  
hear the dial tone. Otherwise, recheck all installation steps.  
Your Caller ID phone stores and displays specific information,  
provided by your local telephone company, to subscribers of  
Caller ID or similar caller identification services.  
NOTE: Make sure either line button 1 or 2 is pressed, when the  
handset is picked-up or the speakerphone is in use.  
IMPORTANT: If you are not going to use the telephone for more  
than 30 days, remove the batteries because they may leak and  
damage the unit.
