Caller ID Service

Talking Caller ID

To use this feature, you need to subscribe to Caller ID. For further information, please contact your telephone company.

•If the unit does not receive Caller ID information, the unit will announce “Call from out of area”, “Call from private caller”, or “Call from long distance”. If a call is received from an area where name display service is not available, “Number available” will be announced.

•If the ringer volume of the handset and base unit is off, caller names will not be announced. The announcement is heard at the handset or base unit ringer volume (p. 17, 18).

•If this feature is not turned on, caller names will not be announced (see below, p. 37).

•If you have Call Waiting service, the second caller’s information will be displayed but not announced (For Call Waiting Service Users, page 57).

•Name pronunciation may vary. Name pronunciation quality is based on names most commonly used in the United States.

•The unit will announce each letter of abbreviations, such as “Co.” and “Inc.”.

•Caller ID supports names of up to 15 letters. If the caller’s name has more than 15 letters, the name will not be displayed or announced correctly.

•If you subscribe to a Distinctive Ring Service (such as IDENTA-RING) from your telephone company with 2 or 3 consecutive rings, your unit may mute one or more of the rings in order to announce the name of the caller.

To turn Talking Caller ID on or off

You can turn Talking Caller ID on or off for the handset and base unit separately. If this feature is off, the unit will not announce caller names while receiving Caller ID information. The factory preset is ON.
