Missed calls

Handset / Base unit

If a call is not answered, the unit treats it as a missed call. The display shows “Missed

call”.

REven when there are unviewed missed calls, “Missed call” disappears from the standby display if the following operation is performed by one of the units:

–A handset is replaced on the base unit or charger.

–Pressing MOFFN on a handset.

–Pressing MEXITN on the base unit.

Phonebook name display

When caller information is received and it matches a phone number stored in the phonebook, the stored name in the phonebook is displayed and logged in the caller list.

Talking Caller ID

Handset / Base unit

This feature lets you know who is calling without looking at the display.

To use this feature, you must:

–subscribe to a Caller ID service of your service provider/telephone company.

–turn this feature on (page 28, 30). When caller information is received, the handsets and base unit announce the caller’s name or phone number received from your service provider/telephone company following every ring.

The unit announces in English only.

R Name pronunciation may vary. This feature may not pronounce all names correctly.

R Caller ID service has a limit of how many characters can be displayed. If the caller’s name is too long, the unit may not be able to display or announce the entire name.

R The announcement is heard at the same level as the ringer volume (page 17, 28, 30).

R If you turn on the answering system and set the number of rings “2 rings” (page 45), the unit does not announce the caller information. If “Toll saver” is selected and there is a new message, the unit does not announce the caller information.

R When you receive a call while on the phone, the 2nd caller’s name is not announced even if you subscribe to both Caller ID and Call Waiting with Caller ID services.

Phonebook name announcement

When caller information is received and it matches a phone number stored in the phonebook, the stored name in the phonebook is announced.
