Using Caller ID service
This unit is Caller ID compatible. To use 
Caller ID features, you must subscribe to 
your telephone company’s Caller ID 
service.
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 different 
callers is logged in the caller list, allowing 
you to return missed calls. Caller 
information is stored 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.
Private name display
When caller information is received and it 
matches a phone number stored in the 
phonebook, the stored name is displayed 
and logged in the caller list.
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 19).
Note:
L
Please contact your telephone company 
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 unit announces the caller’s 
name displayed on the unit following every 
ring.
To use this feature, you must subscribe to 
your telephone company’s Caller ID 
service.
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.
L
When you receive a call while on the 
phone, the 2nd caller’s name is not 
announced even if you subscribe to both 
Caller ID and Call Waiting with Caller ID 
services.
L
This feature can be turned on or off 
(page 48).
