Caller ID

Caller ID - call waiting ID

Your phone is capable of displaying the number of the caller before the call is answered (caller ID or CID). If the number is already in the directory, the name of the caller will also be displayed. Your phone can hold up to 50 caller ID entries.

The handset display informs you when there are calls that have not been answered by a system handset. These are missed calls. If you answer a call before the information appears on the screen, it will not be in the caller ID log.

After all missed caller ID records are reviewed, the screen will show:

The NEW icon in the lower left corner indicates the call has not yet been reviewed.

HANDSET 1

5 MISSED CALLS

HANDSET 1

If you do not

subscribe to caller

ID services, you

can still use your

phone and the

other features it

offers.

Your phone can also display the name and number of the call waiting caller (call waiting caller ID), so you can decide whether to answer the incoming call, or continue with the current conversation.
