Caller ID features

matches a phone number stored in the unit’s phonebook, the stored name will be displayed and logged in the caller list.

L When the caller dialled from an area which does not provide Caller ID service, Out of Areawill be displayed.

L When the caller requested not to send caller information, either no information or Private Callerwill 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 2nd caller’s

information while talking. After you hear a call-waiting tone, the caller’s phone number will be displayed.
