ET-683 900-MHz 2-Line Speakerphone with Caller ID/Call Waiting
(430-0683)                 Caller ID                  Faxback Doc. # 57072

Caller Id Operation (Handset Only)

If you subscribe to Caller ID service from your phone company, the phone 
company sends information about the call, as well as the time and date, 
between the first and second rings of every call you receive.  Although 
the Caller ID memory is on the handset, it also records the call you 
receive on the speakerphone. 

The ET-683 displays this information when it receives a call, and it 
stores up to 80 caller ID records - 40 each for both lines - for later 
review.  It also shows if caller information is unavailable or if the name 
and number were blocked by the caller (see "Caller ID Messages" below).

If you subscribe to Call waiting with Caller ID, you will hear a tone 
through the handset when a call comes in, then the Caller ID record 
appears.  If you want to answer the incoming call, press DEL/FLASH.  To 
resume the previous phone conversation, press DEL/FLASH again.

If the ET-683's Caller ID memory becomes full, any new call replaces the 
oldest call's record.

Reviewing Caller ID Records

To review the Caller ID records, lift the handset if necessary and press 
CALL ID/HOLD.  Numbers of new and total numbers of Caller ID records for 
each line appear.  Press /\ INTCM or CONF \/ to select the line you want 
to view, then press SELECT/VOLUME.

Note:  If the handset is faceup on the base, it shows the number of Caller 
       ID records, so you can see if you have new records to review.

Repeatedly press CONF \/ to scroll through the Caller ID records from the
newest to the oldest, or /\ INTCM to scroll back through the records.  To
scroll quickly through the records, hold down CONF \/ or /\ INTCM.

When you scroll past the last record, End of List appears. When you scroll
past the first record, Start of List appears.

The top line of each record shows the date, time and the number of calls
from that number.  The second line shows the caller's name, and the third
line shows the caller's phone number.

To exit the Caller ID record display, press CALL ID/HOLD.

                          the phone frequently displays Incomplete Data,

Dialing Numbers From A Caller ID Record

To dial a local number stored in a Caller ID record, recall the record, 
then press LINE 1 or LINE 2.  If it is a long distance call, press 1 (1 
appears before the displayed number) before you press LINE 1 or LINE 2.

Notes:  You can use either line to make a call.  For example, you can use 
        line 2 to make a call to the number stored in the line 1 Caller ID
        memory.

        If a Caller ID record does not contain a phone number (if it was 
        blocked by the caller, for example), you cannot dial from that 
        record.
