3.3 Handling an Incoming Call

X-Lite must be running to answer incoming calls. (If X-Lite is not running, incoming calls may be directed to
voicemail; check with your VoIP service provider.)

phone number of the person calling you is displayed. In addition, the Call Alert box appears, even if X-Lite is
