How Does the Caller ID Work?

When Your Telephone Rings

name has stored in the Speed Dial. Once you
answer the call, the caller’s ID disappears.
You will see up to the first 16 characters of the
number on the display.

Note

• If ID Unknown appears on the display, it

means that the call came from outside
your caller ID service area or a public
phone.

• If ID Withheld appears on the display, it

means the caller intentionally blocked the
transmission of his/her ID.
