Panasonic KX-F560 - Manual (Page 26)

7. Caller ID Service
This unit is compatible with the Caller ID service offered by your local telephone company. To use this
feature, you must subscribe to a Caller ID service.
Caller ID allows you to view the telephone number and name of the caller before you answer the phone.
The information of the party calling you will be displayed after the first ring.
By using Caller ID, you have the option of whether or not to answer the call depending on the caller.
Whether you are screening your calls or just too busy to answer the phone, Caller ID gives you the freedom
to choose.
The unit can also store the caller’s information for voice/fax calls in memory, creating a caller list. You can
confirm who has called using the caller list. This can be very useful if you are frequently out of the office or
too busy to answer the phone.
Important:
• When you subscribe to a service, set the unit as follows;
—Set the FAX ring count (page 19) and the TEL/FAX ring count (page 18) to more than 2.
— When an answering machine is connected to the unit, set the machine to answer after two or more rings.
