Page 38

Using the Phonebook

You can store up to 200 caller information in the handset phonebook and up to 20 caller information in the base unit phonebook. If you subscribed to Caller ID and you received a call from the same phone number you stored with name in each phonebook, the display will show the caller’s name.

When same phone number has been registered to the handset and the base unit phonebook with different names, each display will show each registered caller’s name.

Private Category Feature

You can categorise caller information in the handset phonebook. There are 9 categories available. For example, category 1 can be used to save all friends numbers. For each category, you can rewrite the category names (max. 10 characters: see Changing the Category Name on page 61), you can select one of 3 Ringer LED colours (see Setting the Private Colour on page 61) and one of 15 ringer types (see Ringer Options on page 58).

This feature is available only after subscription to Caller ID Service. Please contact your telephone company for further information.

*The factory preset LED colour is green.

The unit will indicate an incoming call using the factory preset LED colour (green) and the ringer pattern assigned to external calls (p. 59) momentarily until Caller ID information is received from the telephone company.

Audible Caller ID

To use this feature, you need to subscribe to Caller ID service. For further information, please contact your telephone company. You need to store caller information and to record the name into the base unit phonebook (p. 40).

When a call comes in, the unit will ring and the caller information will be received. If you receive a call from one of the same phone numbers stored in the base unit phonebook, the recorded name will be announced.

If the ringer volume of the cordless handset is OFF, recorded names will not be announced. Announcement volume depends on the cordless handset ringer setting (p. 59).

If the ringer volume of the base unit is OFF, recorded names will not be announced. Announcement volume depends on the base unit ringer setting (p. 76).

Your unit may mute one or more of rings in order to announce the name of the caller, as announcement is prior to rings.
