Important  
Information  
To use this Caller ID (CID), you must  
be in an area where Caller ID service  
is available, and you must subscribe  
to the service.  
• Where Caller ID is offered, one or  
more of the following options are gen-  
erally available:  
– caller’s number only  
– caller’s name only  
– caller’s name and number  
Your CID displays the caller’s name  
only if that option is available in your  
area.  
• The actual number of Caller ID  
records your CID will store depends  
on the amount of Caller ID informa-  
tion sent by the phone company.  
Your CID is ETL listed to UL standards  
and meets all applicable FCC require-  
ments.  
4
Important Information  
FCC INFORMATION  
We have designed your CID to conform to  
federal regulations, and you can connect it  
to most telephone lines. However, each  
CID (and each device, such as a tele-  
phone or answering machine) that you  
connect to the telephone line draws power  
from the line. We refer to this power draw  
as the device’s ringer equivalence num-  
ber, or REN. The REN is on the bottom of  
your CID.  
If you use more than one phone or other  
device on the line, add up all the RENs. If  
the total is more than five (three in rural  
areas), your phones might not ring. If ring-  
er operation is impaired, remove a device  
from the line.  
Your CID complies with Part 68 of the  
FCC Rules. You must, upon request, pro-  
vide the FCC registration number and the  
REN to your phone company. Both num-  
bers are on the bottom of the CID.  
You must not connect your CID to:  
• coin-operated systems  
• party-line systems  
5
Important Information  
• most electronic key telephone sys-  
tems  
In the unlikely event that your CID causes  
problems on the phone line, the phone  
company can temporarily disconnect your  
service. If this happens, the phone com-  
pany attempts to notify you in advance. If  
advance notice is not practical, the phone  
company notifies you as soon as possible  
and advises you of your right to file a com-  
plaint with the FCC.  
Also, the phone company can make  
changes to its lines, equipment, opera-  
tions, or procedures that could affect the  
operation of this CID. The phone company  
notifies you of these changes in advance,  
so you can take the necessary steps to  
prevent interruption of your phone service.  
This CID complies with the limits for a  
Class B digital device as specified in Part  
15 of the FCC Rules. These limits provide  
reasonable protection against radio and  
TV interference in a residential area. How-  
ever, your equipment might cause TV or  
radio interference even when it is operat-  
ing properly.  
6
Important Information  
To eliminate interference, you can try one  
or more of the following corrective mea-  
sures:  
• Reorient or relocate the TV or radio’s  
receiving antenna.  
• Increase the distance between the  
CID and the radio or TV.  
• Use outlets on different electrical cir-  
cuits for the equipment and the radio  
or TV.  
Consult your local RadioShack store if the  
problem continues.  
LIGHTNING  
Your CID has built-in protection circuits to  
reduce the risk of damage from surges in  
telephone and power line current. These  
protection circuits meet or exceed the  
FCC requirements. However, lightning  
striking the telephone or power lines can  
damage your CID.  
Lightning damage is not common. Never-  
theless, if you live in an area that has se-  
vere electrical storms, we suggest that  
you unplug your CID when storms  
approach to reduce the possibility of dam-  
age.

ˆ Preparation  
INSTALLING BATTERIES/  
SETUP  
You need three AAA batteries (not sup-  
plied) to power your Caller ID (CID). For  
the longest operation and best perfor-  
mance, we recommend alkaline batteries,  
available at your local RadioShack store.  
Cautions:  
• Always use fresh batteries of the  
required size and recommended  
type.  
• Do not mix old and new batteries, dif-  
ferent types of batteries (alkaline,  
standard, or rechargeable), or  
rechargeable batteries of different  
capacities.  
Follow these steps to install batteries.  
1. Use a flat-blade screwdriver to lift and  
remove the battery compartment  
cover.  
2. Insert three fresh AAA batteries into  
the compartment as indicated by the  
10  
Preparation  
polarity symbols (+ and –) marked  
inside.  
3. Turn the CID over so you can see the  
display. After you install the batteries,  
I;J B7D=K7=; flashes briefly, then  
;D=B?I> (the default display language)  
flashes for about 10 seconds.  
Note: If you do not press any button  
for about 10 seconds, the CID auto-  
matically selects English and the time  
and date appear.  
4. To select another language, press  
REVIEW 8. <H;D9> flashes. Press  
REVIEW 8 until the desired lan-  
guage flashes.  
5. Press REVIEW 9 to store the  
selected language. Or, after about 10  
seconds, the CID automatically  
stores the displayed language.  
'(0&&7C '%&' appears.  
6. Replace the cover.  
When  
flashes or the display dims, re-  
place the batteries.  
Warning: Dispose of old batteries  
promptly and properly. Do not burn or  
bury them.  
11  
Preparation  
Caution: If you do not plan to use the CID  
for a month, remove the batteries. Batter-  
ies can leak chemicals that can destroy  
electronic parts.  
Notes:  
• Before you replace the batteries,  
have fresh ones on hand. If you do  
not install new batteries within about  
2 minutes after removing the old  
ones, the CID records and the date  
and time will be lost. The records  
cannot be replaced, but the date and  
time will automatically reset when you  
receive the next call.  
• Unplug the modular line cord from the  
CID before you replace the batteries.  
To reset the language, hold down  
REVIEW 8 and 9 until I;J B7D=K7=;  
flashes briefly then ;D=B?I> flashes on  
the display. Then repeat Steps 4–5 to  
set the language.  
12

through each hole in the bracket, then  
tighten the screws.  
4. Align the slots on the back of the  
Caller ID with the holes on the  
bracket. Gently slide the CID down-  
ward to secure it.  
15  
Preparation  
To remove the bracket from the CID, slide  
the bracket down then lift and remove it.  
ˆ Operation  
INCOMING CALLS  
When you subscribe to Caller ID service  
from your phone company, the phone  
company sends the caller’s phone num-  
ber (and name, if available) and the call’s  
time and date between the first and sec-  
ond rings. Your CID receives and displays  
this information for each call and updates  
the current date and time. You cannot  
manually set the date and time.  
97BB and the CALL indicator flash when  
you have an incoming call, and the call  
record appears for 20 seconds, then the  
number of new calls appears.  
D;M flashes and the NEW CALL indica-  
tor flashes to show that you have re-  
ceived new calls since the last time you  
reviewed the stored records.  
16  
Operation  
USING CALL REJECT  
When you receive a call you do not want  
to answer, press CALL REJECT. The  
CALL REJECT indicator lights and the  
CID announces “We don’t accept calls  
of this nature. Please remove our phone  
number from your calling list. Thank  
you.”  
Note: The CID displays the caller’s  
phone number until you delete it (see  
“Deleting Caller ID Records” on  
Page 20).  
MESSAGE WAITING  
Note: The message waiting feature does  
not work with stutter dial tone service.  
Check with your phone company for the  
type of service you have.  
If you subscribe to the telephone com-  
pany’s message waiting service and  
have a voice-mail message waiting, D;M  
97BB and C;II7=;ýM7?J?D= appear on the  
display. C;II7=;ýM7?J?D= remains on the  
display until you retrieve the message.  
If you are talking on the phone when a call  
comes in, the incoming call automatically  
rolls over to message waiting. The phone  
17  
Operation  
company sends the information after you  
end the current call and C;II7=; M7?J?D=  
appears on the display.  
In some areas, callers can block the send-  
ing of their Caller ID information. When a  
caller blocks the Caller ID information, #  
FH?L7J; 97BB¶ appears instead of the call  
information.  
REVIEWING CALL RECORDS  
Each time you receive a call, your CID  
stores a record that you can see while you  
are on the phone, or review later. Your  
CID saves up to 50 call records, replacing  
the oldest call record with a new call  
record.  
Each call record includes the call number  
(order in which the call is received), the  
time and date of the call, the caller’s  
phone number (if available), and the call-  
er’s name (if available).  
To review the call records, repeatedly  
press REVIEW 8 or 9.  
;D: E< B?IJ appears when you try to scroll  
before the first or after the last call record.

Operation  
Note: The CID shows up to 10 digits of an  
incoming phone number. If the number is  
longer, you see only the last 10 digits.
