Using Caller ID service
This unit is Caller ID compatible. To use
Caller ID features, you must subscribe to
Caller ID service of your telephone service
provider.
Caller ID features
When an outside call is being received, the
calling party’s name and telephone
number are displayed.
Caller information for the last 50 callers is
logged in the caller list by the most recent
call to the oldest.
L
Generally caller information is displayed
from the 2nd ring.
L If the unit cannot receive caller
information, the following is displayed:
– “Out of area”: The caller dialed
from an area which does not provide
Caller ID service.
– “Private caller”: The caller
requested not to send caller
information.
– “Long distance”: The caller called
you long distance.
L
If the unit is connected to a PBX system,
caller information may not be received
properly. Consult your PBX supplier.
Missed calls
If a call is not answered, the unit treats the
call as a missed call. “Missed call” is
displayed on the handset display. This lets
you know if you should view the caller list
to see who called while you were out.
You can view the number of missed calls
by pressing {CID} (left soft key).
Note:
L
If you press {CID}, then press {OFF}
without viewing all missed calls in the
caller list, “Missed call” disappears
from the display. When you receive
another new call, it is displayed again.
Call Waiting Caller ID display
If you subscribe to both Caller ID and Call
Waiting with Caller ID services, the 2nd
caller’s information is displayed after you
hear a Call Waiting tone (page 29). Please
contact your telephone service provider for
details and availability of this service in
your area.
Talking Caller ID
This feature lets you know who is calling
without looking at the display. When a call
comes in, the handset and base unit
announce the caller’s name displayed on
the handset following every ring.
To use this feature, you must subscribe to
Caller ID service of your telephone service
provider.
L Name pronunciation may vary. This
feature may not pronounce all names
correctly.
L Caller ID supports names of up to 15
letters. If the caller’s name has more
than 15 letters, the name is not
displayed or announced correctly.
L Usually the unit announces the caller’s
name after the 2nd ring. If you turn on
the answering system and set the ring
count to “2 rings” (page 59), the unit
does not announce the caller’s name. If
“Toll saver” is selected and there is a
new message, the unit does not
announce the caller’s name.
