RECEIVING A CALL
The last 99 incoming calls are saved in the Caller ID log.
Make sure that the Caller ID service is turned on by your phone company. When
you receive a call, the display will show the name of the caller and number of the
call. To answer the call if the handset is out of the base, press the TALK button. If
the handset is in the base, simply remove it from the base. The display will show
the amount of time you have been on the phone.

NOTES:
• The incoming call indicator will blink on the base unit, even if the RINGER
switch is off and a call is received.
• If you subscribe to Caller ID, the time and date are automatically set when the
first call is received.
• If a call is received from an area which does not provide caller ID service, the
display will show, “UNKNOWN”. If a call is received from outside the Caller ID
area, the display will show, “OUT OF AREA”.
• If a call is received from a caller that has blocked his/her information, the
display will show, “PRIVATE CALL”.
• Calls picked up on the first ring will not be logged in the Caller ID log.
• Call Waiting calls are shown in the Caller ID log if you subscribe to the extra
feature from the phone company that allows this.
• If there are new calls, “NEW” will blink in the display.
• If a call is received from the same number more than once since the last
records were reviewed, no new entry is made, but the repeat (REP) indicator
and the number of repeat calls is displayed.
