SPEED DIAL 1:Robert Brown 2:Caller ID
About caller ID
This 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 waiting
Caller 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 56).

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.
How the caller ID history (call log) works
If you subscribe to caller ID service provided by your telephone service provider, information about each caller will appear after the first or second ring. If you answer a call before the caller information appears on the screen, it is not saved in the call log.
- The call log stores up to 50 entries. Each entry may have up to 24 digits for the phone number and 15 characters for the name.
- You can review, redial, and copy an entry into the directory.
- Entries appear in reverse chronological order.
- When the call log is full, the oldest entry is deleted to make room for new incoming call information.
- L1)X Missed and/or L2)X Missed displays when there are new call log entries that have not been reviewed.
- Call log empty shows when there are no records in the call log.
- Only one handset or the telephone base can review the call log at a time. If a handset tries to enter the call log while another handset or the telephone base is already in it, its screen shows Not available at this time.

NOTE: If the phone number has more than 24 digits, it will not be saved or shown in the call log.
Missed (new) call indicator
When there are calls that have not been reviewed in the call log, the corresponding line message, L1)X Missed or L2)X Missed, shows on the handset and the telephone base.
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 history, you can press and hold OFF on the handset for four seconds when
the handset is idle, or press and hold CANCEL on the telephone base for four seconds when the telephone base is idle. You will hear a confirmation tone. All the entries in the caller ID history become old (reviewed already), and the missed calls message goes away.

If the incoming telephone number matches the last seven digits of a telephone number in your directory, the name that appears on the screen matches the corresponding name in your directory.
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 call log is in the format sent by the telephone service provider. The telephone service provider usually delivers 10-digit phone numbers (area code plus phone number). If the last 7-digit of an incoming telephone number does not match a number in your directory, the name appears as it is delivered by the telephone service provider.

ANS SYS SETUPof rings
Remote code Msg alert tone BACK SELECT MSG ALERT TONE ✓On OFF BACK SETAnswering system and voicemail indicators
Your telephone has separate indicators for two different types of voice messages: those left on its built-in answering system and those left on your telephone service provider's voicemail (fees may apply). Your telephone's built-in answering system messages and voicemail messages are separate. Each alerts you to new messages differently.
- If the 📋 icon and a line number appear on the handset and telephone base, your telephone service provider is indicating that it has new voicemail for you. To listen to your voicemail, dial an access number provided by your telephone service provider, followed by a security code or PIN.
- If the ▶/■/MAIL BOX 1 or ▶/■/MAIL BOX 2 button on the telephone base flashes, your digital answering system has new messages for you. To listen to the messages, press the flashing mailbox button.
Some telephone service providers bundle or combine multiple services like voicemail and call waiting, so you may not be aware that you have voicemail. To check what services you have and how to access them, contact your telephone service provider.
To use your voicemail service rather than the answering system, turn off the answering system. To use the answering system rather than your voicemail service, contact your telephone service provider to deactivate your voicemail service.
Using the answering system and voicemail together
You can also use the 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. Then, if you are on a call, or if 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.
Message capacity
The answering system of line 1 and line 2 can each record and store up to 99 messages. Each message can be up to four minutes in length. The total storage capacity of each telephone line for the announcement, messages and memos is approximately 14 minutes. The actual recording time depends on individual message characteristics. Messages remain available for replay until you delete them.

Maintenance
Taking care of your telephone
- Your cordless telephone contains sophisticated electronic parts, so you must treat it with care.
- Avoid rough treatment.
- Place the handset down gently.
- Save the original packing materials to protect your telephone if you ever need to ship it.
Avoid water
- You can damage your telephone if it gets wet. Do not use the handset in the rain, or handle it with wet hands. Do not install the telephone base near a sink, bathtub or shower.
Electrical storms
- Electrical storms can sometimes cause power surges harmful to electronic equipment. For your own safety, take caution when using electric appliances during storms.
Cleaning your telephone
- Your telephone has a durable plastic casing that should retain its luster for many years. Clean it only with a soft cloth slightly dampened with water or mild soap.
- Do not use excess water or cleaning solvents of any kind.
Remember that electrical appliances can cause serious injury if used when you are wet or standing in water. If the telephone base should fall into water, DO NOT RETRIEVE IT UNTIL YOU UNPLUG THE POWER CORD AND TELEPHONE LINE CORDS FROM THE WALL. Then, pull the unit out by the unplugged cords.
Important safety information

This symbol is to alert you to important operating or servicing instructions that may appear in this user's manual. Always follow basic safety precautions when using this product to reduce the risk of injury, fire, or electric shock.
Safety information
- Read and understand all instructions in the user's manual. Observe all markings on the product.
- Avoid using a telephone during a thunderstorm. There may be a slight chance of electric shock from lightning.
- Do not use a telephone in the vicinity of a gas leak. Under certain circumstances, a spark may be created when the adapter is plugged into the power outlet, or when the handset is replaced in its cradle. This is a common event associated with the closing of any electrical circuit. The user should not plug the phone into a power outlet, and should not put a charged handset into the cradle, if the phone is located in an environment containing concentrations of flammable or flame-supporting gases, unless there is adequate ventilation. A spark in such an environment could create a fire or explosion. Such environments may include: medical use of oxygen without adequate ventilation; industrial gases (cleaning solvents; gasoline vapors; etc.); a leak of natural gas; etc.
- Do not use this product near water, or when you are wet. For example, do not use it in a wet basement or shower, or next to a swimming pool, bathtub, kitchen sink, or laundry tub. Do not use liquids or aerosol sprays for cleaning. If the product comes in contact with any liquid, unplug any line or power cord immediately. Do not plug the product back in until it has dried thoroughly.
- Install this product in a protected location where no one can trip over any line or power cords. Protect cords from damage or abrasion.
- If this product does not operate normally, see the Troubleshooting section on pages 84-91 of this user's manual. If you cannot solve the problem, or if the product is damaged, refer to the Limited warranty section on pages 101-102. Do not open this product except as directed in your user's manual. Opening the product or reassembling it incorrectly may expose you to hazardous voltages or other risks.
- Replace batteries only, as described in your user's manual (pages 8-9). Do not burn or puncture batteries — they contain caustic chemicals.
- The power adapters are intended to be correctly oriented in a vertical or floor mount position. The prongs are not designed to hold the plug in place if it is plugged into a ceiling, under-the-table or cabinet outlet.

CAUTIONS:
- Use only the power adapters provided with this product. To obtain a replacement, visit our website at www.telephones.att.com or call 1 (800) 222-3111. In Canada, dial 1 (866) 288-4268.
- Use only the supplied rechargeable battery or replacement battery (model BT183342). To order, visit our website at www.telephones.att.com or call 1 (800) 222-3111. In Canada, dial 1 (866) 288-4268.
- To prevent risk of fire or battery explosion, replace with the correct battery type. Dispose of used batteries according to the instructions.
Especially about cordless telephones
- Privacy: The same features that make a cordless telephone convenient create some limitations. 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.

The RBRC™ Seal means that the manufacturer is voluntarily participating in an industry program to collect and recycle nickel-metal hydride rechargeable batteries when taken out of service within the United States. These batteries may be taken to a participating local retailer of replacement batteries or recycling center. Or you may call 1 (800) 8-BATTERY for locations accepting spent Ni-MH batteries.
Precautions for users of implanted cardiac pacemakers
Cardiac pacemakers (applies only to digital cordless telephones):
Wireless Technology Research, LLC (WTR), an independent research entity, led a multidisciplinary evaluation of the interference between portable wireless telephones and implanted cardiac pacemakers. Supported by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, WTR recommends to physicians that:
Pacemaker patients
- Should keep wireless telephones at least six inches from the pacemaker.
- Should NOT place wireless telephones directly over the pacemaker, such as in a breast pocket, when it is turned ON.
- Should use the wireless telephone at the ear opposite the pacemaker.
WTR's evaluation did not identify any risk to bystanders with pacemakers from other persons using wireless telephones.
Especially about telephone answering systems
Two-way recording: This unit does not sound warning beeps to inform the other party that the call is being recorded. To ensure that you are in compliance with any federal or state regulations regarding recording a telephone call, you should start the recording process and then inform the other party that you are recording the conversation.
