CALLER ID

You must subscribe to Caller ID service
to use this feature.

When the telephone rings, the Caller ID
feature allows you to view the caller´s name
and phone number on the display before
you answer the phone. The handset
displays the phone number of the incoming
call, the name, and time. Additionally, you
can dial the displayed number and store the
information for memory dialing. Make sure
you have turned on the Caller ID on Call
Waiting feature. (See “changing the Auto
Talk and CIDCW” on page 17.)
