How it works:  When you receive a call, the name & number of the person calling you is shown on your Caller ID display screen.

How to use Caller ID Name & Number:           

1. When you receive a call wait until your telephone begins the second ringing signal
2. The telephone number calling you, & the name associated with that number in telephone company records, will automatically appear on your display screen
3. If you choose not to answer the call or you are not home, the name & number will remain in the call log for later review

NOTE:  Subscription to Caller ID Name & Number service requires the purchase of a 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 & number by pressing * 67 before placing the call.  You can choose whether or not to answer the call.
• If "unknown name," "unknown number," "out of the area," or "O" appears, the caller is in an area that does not support Caller ID Name & Number services.

How it works: When you are already on the phone, Call Waiting alerts you that another call is coming in.  You will hear a “beep”, but the calling party will hear normal ringing.

To answer waiting call:

1. When you are on the phone, a special tone tells you that a second call is waiting.
2. Simply hit the flash key. If you don't have that key, press & quickly release the switchhook on your telephone.  Your first caller is automatically placed on hold, while you are connected with second caller.

If you chose not to answer the incoming call:

1. You will hear a special tone to remind you of the waiting call.  If have Alpine voicemail, after the 2nd tone the caller will go to voicemail.
