Using Caller ID service
Important:
L
This unit is Caller ID compatible. To use 
Caller ID features (such as displaying 
caller phone numbers), you must 
subscribe to Caller ID service. Consult 
your service provider for details.
Caller ID features
When an outside call is received, the caller’s 
phone number can be displayed.
L
Phone numbers of the last 50 different 
callers will be logged in the caller list.
L
While listening to a message recorded by 
the answering system, you can call back 
the caller without having to dial the phone 
number (KX-TG1822 only; page 50).
L
When caller information is received and it 
matches a phone number stored in the 
unit’s phonebook:
– The stored name will be displayed and 
logged in the caller list.
– The handset will use the ringtone 
assigned to the caller’s category.
– The handset will announce the audible 
call recording you made (KX-TG1822 
only).
L
If the unit is connected to a PBX system, 
you may not receive the caller information.
L
When the caller dialled from an area 
which does not provide Caller ID service, 
“Out of Area” will be displayed.
L
When the caller requested not to send 
caller information, either no information or 
“Private Caller” will be displayed.
Missed calls
If a call is not answered, the unit treats the 
call as a missed call. The number of missed 
calls is shown on the display. This lets you 
know if you should view the caller list to see 
who called while you were out.
Call waiting and Caller ID 
compatible
If you subscribe to Caller ID service, your 
handset displays the second caller’s 
information while talking. After you hear a 
call-waiting tone, the caller’s phone number 
will be displayed.
You can answer the second call, keeping the 
first call on hold. Follow Telstra or your 
service provider instructions using {R}.
L
If the phone number is stored in the 
phonebook with its name, the caller’s 
name will also be displayed.
L
Please contact Telstra or your service 
provider for details and availability in your 
area.
Using Caller ID type II
When you receive a second call during a 
conversation, you will hear a signal tone 
following the call waiting tone and the 
conversation will be interrupted or 
muted for a short period of time.
 This is 
not the fault of the product as these events 
are normal.
Note:
L
The tones are generated by the service 
provider.
Category features for handset 
phonebook
Categories can help you identify who is 
calling by using different ringtones for 
different categories of callers. When adding 
an entry to the handset phonebook you can 
assign it to the desired category (page 21)
When a call is received from a caller 
assigned to a category, the category’s 
ringtone you select is used.
Changing category ringtones
You can select a ringtone for each category. 
If you select “Ext. Ringtone”, the unit 
will use the external ringtone you set on
