Using Caller ID service
Important:
R This unit is Caller ID compatible. To use Caller ID features, you must subscribe to a Caller ID service. Contact your service provider/telephone company for details.
Caller ID features
Base unit / 
Handset
When an outside call is being received, the caller’s name and phone number are displayed.
Caller information for the last 50 callers is logged in the caller list from the most recent call to the oldest.
R If the unit cannot receive caller information, the following is displayed:
–“Out of area”: The caller dials from an area which does not provide a Caller ID service.
–“Private caller”: The caller requests not to send caller information.
–“Long distance”: The caller makes a long
distance call.
R If the unit is connected to a PBX system, caller information may not be properly received. Contact your PBX supplier.
Missed calls
Base unit / 
Handset
If a call is not answered, the unit treats it as a missed call. The display shows “Missed call”. This lets you know if you should view the caller list to see who called while you were away.
Note:
R Even 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 charger.
–Pressing MOFFN on a handset.
–Pressing MnN (EXIT) 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
Base unit / 
Handset
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 22).
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 14, 21, 22).
R If you turn on the answering system and set the number of rings “2 rings” (page 34), 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.
Ringer ID
This feature can help you identify who is calling by using different ringer tones for different groups of callers. When adding an entry to the phonebook, you can assign it to the desired group (page 17). When a call is received from a caller assigned to a group, the ringer you selected for that group rings after caller information is displayed. If you select “Current ringer” (default), the unit uses the ringer tone you selected on page 22 when calls from this group are received.
