Caller ID Service
This unit is compatible with Caller ID services offered by your telephone company. If
you subscribe to Caller ID, callers’ information will be displayed and recorded in the
Caller List.
How Caller ID information is displayed
When a call comes in, the unit will ring and the Caller ID
information will be received. The handset display will
show the caller’s phone number after the ring.*
• After you answer the call, the display will show the
length of the call.
*Private name display
If you receive a call from one of the phone numbers
stored in the phone book, the handset will show the
caller’s name stored in the phone book.
The handset and base unit will announce the displayed
name (Ex. “Call from TINA ROBINSON”) following every
ring (Talking Caller ID feature, p. 35).
• To use this function, names and phone numbers must be stored in the phone book
(p. 41).
• If the handsets each have the same phone number stored with a different name,
each handset will display the name stored in its own phone book.
• If the unit does not receive Caller ID information, one of the following will be
displayed:
• Depending on radio communications with the base unit, the handset may not
display Caller ID information immediately after the ring.
• If your unit is connected to a PBX which does not support Caller ID, you cannot
access Caller ID services.
• If the name display service is available in your area, the display will show callers’
names. For further information, please contact your telephone company.
• If you subscribe to Caller ID services, when a second call is received while talking,
a call waiting tone will be heard and the second caller’s information will be
displayed (p. 59).
Contact Telstra or your service provider for details and availability in your area.
