Caller ID

You must subscribe to Caller ID service to use this feature.

When the telephone rings, the Caller ID feature allows you to view the caller´s name and phone number on the display before you answer the phone. The handset displays the phone number of the incoming call, the name, time, and the number of calls. Additionally, you can dial the displayed number and store the information for memory dialing.

There are three Caller ID setup options available; they are AutoTalk, CIDCW (Caller ID on Call Waiting), and Area Code.

AutoTalk allows you to answer the phone without pressing . If the phone rings when AutoTalk is on, simply remove the handset from the base and the phone automatically answers the call. Or, if the handset is not on the base, press any key to answer the call. If the phone rings when AutoTalk is off, you

must press to answer the call.

Caller ID on Call Waiting (CIDCW) performs the same as regular Caller ID on a call waiting number. Call Waiting options allow you to handle call waiting calls in seven different ways. (See page 35.)

If you enter a 3-digit area code number in the Area Code option, your local area code does not appear in Caller ID messages. When reviewing Caller ID messages, you will see only the local seven digit number. For calls received from outside your local area code, you will see a full 10-digit number.

If your calling area requires 10-digit dialing, do not program this option.
