Meridian 9516CW
(430-5814)                 Introduction               Faxback Doc. # 46279

Thank you for purchasing Nortel's Meridian 9516CW telephone.  We think
you'll find it's full of exciting features.  With a built-in digital
answering machine, personal Directory, and a Callers list, your new
telephone is designed to take full advantage of the latest services
offered by your local telephone company.

When you subscribe to services such as Calling Line Identification and
Call Waiting Identification through your local telephone company, your
Meridian 9516CW will show you all the caller information you'll need on
its three-line back-lit display.  For example, before you even answer a
call you'll know who is calling, even if it's a Call Waiting call.  And
Call Waiting identification information can appear on two telephone
extensions at the same time so that someone at either extension can
initiate the switch to a Call Waiting call.  Your telephone will also tell
you how many messages and new callers you have.

The answering machine doesn't need an audio tape or batteries to work, so
it's easy to set up.  All you have to do is plug in your telephone and its
ready to receive messages. It's also very reliable. You will not lose any
of your messages or greetings (outgoing messages) if there is a power
failure of up to 72 hours.

You can set up a personal Directory in which you can enter up to 75 names
and numbers.  And for each of these numbers, you can record personalized
greetings and Call Announcements (Voice Tags).

Your Callers List will log up to 75 incoming calls and messages, and you
can now record personalized greeting and Call Announcements (Voice Tags)
to numbers stored in memory keys.

The Options List makes it easy for you to personalize your telephone, and
the back-lit three-line display provides walk-through prompting that makes
all of the many features and options even easier to customize.  For more
