You must subscribe to Caller ID services
through your local telephone provider to use
these features.
When the telephone rings, the Caller ID
feature allows you to view the caller’s name,
and phone number along with the date and
time of call. With CIDCW (Caller ID on Call
Waiting), you will hear a call waiting tone
while you are on a call, and the Caller ID
data is displayed. To accept the waiting call,
press
TALK/FLASH (see “Flash and Call
Waiting” on page 33). Ô
Additionally, you can dial a number stored in
the Caller ID list or save data to your
Phonebook locations.

received, the display shows the caller's
phone number along with the date and
time. The incoming call information is
stored in the Caller ID record. If the
Caller ID service includes the caller's
name, the name will appear in the
display (up to 15 characters).
You may receive any one of the
following messages:
When invalid data is received
Incomplete Data
When a private name is received
Private Name
When a private number is received

When a unknown name is received
Unknown Name
When a unknown number is received
