Call Waiting Caller Id
Provided you subscribe to Call Waiting Caller ID service from your phone company; if

of the call will display and store the Call Waiting Caller ID information.

Press FLASH/PROGRAM again to return to the original call.

appears on your phone’s display while the phone rings, giving you a chance to
monitor the information and decide whether or not to answer the call.
