Caller ID - call waiting with CID

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 CID entries..

The handset or base display inform you when there are calls that have not been answered by a system handset or base.. 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..

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

Press and hold REMOVE on the handset (or DELETE on the base) will clear all missed CID records..

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

HANDSET 1

5 MISSED CALLS

HANDSET 1
