CALLING FEATURES

Anonymous Call Rejection
Avoid calls from anyone who blocks their name and number from appearing on caller id. Blocked callers hear a message that instructs them to remove their blocking and try their call again.

Automatic Callback
You can save time dialing busy numbers over and over by dialing a code to have your phone continuously attempt to redial a busy number that you tried to call for up to 30 minutes. When the line is free, you will be alerted with a special ringing, and the call will automatically be made.

Automatic Recall
This option allows you to dial a code and have a call automatically returned to the last party who called or attempted to call you.

Call Forwarding
You can program your calls to ring at another number. Each time a call is fowarded, your phone will make one short ring. It can still be used to make outgoing calls.

Call Forward Busy
Whenever you are on the phone, you can be sure your callers can talk with someone else or can leave a message for you. Easily turn it on or off, or change the forwarding number-anytime.

Call Forward No Answer
If you are not able to get to the phone, you can be sure that your calls will not go unanswered. You can easily change the forwarding number-even choosing how many times your phone should ring.

Call Transfer
You can transfer a call to another number or add a third person to a call. When you are ready to hang up, the other two people can continue their conversation.

Call Waiting
You can use your telephone without missing other calls. A special tone alerts you to a waiting call; the person calling you hears normal ringing.

This feature allows you to view the name and/or telephone number of a waiting call.

When the phone rings you will know right away if it is for you, or another call for the kids! Businesses can set up distinctive ring numbers to send calls directly to a fax machine.

Distinctive Ringing/Call Waiting
You can create a list of up to 30 phone numbers that you want to have a special ringing pattern. Your phone will have a normal ringing pattern for all other calling numbers. If you also have call waiting, you will hear a distinctive call waiting tone whenever someone on your list calls you while you are on the phone.
