A - 9 APPENDIX A
Caller ID (Caller IDentification)
Caller ID is a telephone service that allows the subscriber to see a
display of the caller’s phone number and name if available as the
telephone rings. It is a fast way to screen your calls. You can respond
quickly to calls you missed, because Caller IDs are received and
stored in your MFC memory.
Advantages of Caller ID
For Business
All businesses profit from a quicker response to customer calls.
Businesses that provide mail order services, money-lending services
or provide confidential information, can protect themselves from
false orders or acceptance of false identification.
At Home
Residential customers can protect themselves from unwanted calls.
How Does the Caller ID Work?
The Caller ID Appears on the Display When Your
Telephone Rings
As your telephone rings, the display shows you the caller’s phone
number and name if available. Once you pick up the external
handset, the caller’s ID disappears. You will see up to the first 16
characters of the number and name if available on the display.
* Depends on network Function.
To get the Caller ID Service: apply for the Caller ID service at
your local telephone company, if available.
■
If Out of Area appears on the display, it means that the
call came from outside your caller ID service area. *
■
If Private Call appears on the display, it means the caller
intentionally blocked the transmission of his/her ID. *
