Local & Long Distance
Enhanced Calling Features - Distinctive Ringing
To use:
- When someone dials your main telephone number, you'll hear normal ringing (one long ring).
- When someone dials any of the other telephone numbers, you'll hear a special ring that identifies that number (such as two short rings).
- Wait until the full ring pattern is complete before answering. You'll know whether the call is for you - and how you should greet the caller.
If you also have Call Waiting:
- If someone dials your main number while you're on the phone, you'll hear a normal Call Waiting tone.
- If someone dials one of the other numbers, you'll hear a special Call Waiting tone that identifies that particular number (such as two short tones).
Note:
Your telephone company determines how many different numbers can be assigned to your line.
Only one conversation can be held at a time. Although you have more than one telephone number, you still have just one line.
