FEATURES

Your RadioShack Caller ID System 999
Big Button Caller ID Phone with Call
Waiting combines a telephone and a
Caller ID unit in one system. The Sys-
tem 999 displays the caller’s telephone
number (and name, if available in your
area) and the current time, as provided
by your local telephone company to
Caller ID service subscribers.

Important Information:

• To use the telephone’s Caller ID

feature, you must be in an area
where Caller ID service is available
and you must subscribe to the ser-
vice.

• The telephone displays the caller’s

name only if this feature is available
in your area.

Your system 999 includes these fea-
tures:

Caller ID Memory — stores up to 50
Caller ID records.

13-Number Memory Dialing — lets
you store up to 13 phone numbers in
memory for easy dialing — 3 emergen-
cy or priority (one-touch) numbers and
ten standard numbers.

3-Line Liquid Crystal Display with
Contrast Control 
— shows you an en-
tire Caller ID record on one screen and
lets you adjust the display’s contrast.

Clock  — displays the current time as
provided to Caller ID service subscrib-
ers by your local telephone company.

Time and Date Display  displays the
time and day.

Adjustable Ringer — choose one of
three ringer tones, or turn the ringer off.

Volume Control — lets you control the
volume of the sound you hear through
the handset.

Mute — lets you talk to someone else in
the room without being overheard by the
person on the phone.

Flash — sends an electronic switch-
hook signal for use with special phone
services, such as Call Waiting.

Redial — lets you quickly redial the last
number dialed.

Big Button Keypad — makes it easy to
dial your calls.

Hearing Aid Compatible — lets you
use your telephone with hearing aids
that have a T (telephone) switch.

Wall Mountable — you can easily
mount the System 999 on a wall to save
desk space.
