Using Caller ID service
This unit is Caller ID compatible. To use 
Caller ID features, you must subscribe to 
Caller ID service of your telephone service 
provider.
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 callers is 
logged in the caller list 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.
Missed calls
If a call is not answered, the unit treats the 
call as a missed call. “Missed call” is 
displayed on the handset display. This lets 
you know if you should view the caller list 
to see who called while you were out.
You can view the number of missed calls 
by pressing {CID} (left soft key).
Note:
L
If you press {CID}, then press {OFF
without viewing all missed calls in the 
caller list, “Missed call” disappears 
from the display. When you receive 
another new call, it is displayed again.
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 29). Please 
contact your telephone service provider 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 handset and base unit 
announce the caller’s name displayed on 
the handset following every ring.
To use this feature, you must subscribe to 
Caller ID service of your telephone service 
provider.
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. If you turn on 
the answering system and set the ring 
count to “2 rings” (page 59), the uni
does not announce the caller’s name. If 
Toll saver” is selected and there is a 
new message, the unit does not 
announce the caller’s name.
