Caller ID announce

The caller ID announce feature lets you know who’s calling without having to look at the display. When you have an incoming call, the handset and/or base speaks “Call from...” and the name of the caller based on the directory or caller ID information. If the caller’s name is private or unknown, the phone number up to the last 11 digits will be spoken. If the caller’s phone number is also private or unknown, no information will be spoken. By default, the caller ID announce feature is programmed On.
