4.1 Caller ID service

This unit is compatible with the Caller ID service offered by your local telephone company. To use this unit’s Caller ID features, you must subscribe to Caller ID service.

4.1.1 How Caller ID is displayed

The calling party’s name or telephone number will be displayed after the 1st ring. You then have the option of whether or not to answer the call. The unit will automatically store caller information (name, telephone number and the time of the call) of the 30 most recent calls. Caller information is stored by the most recent to the oldest call. When the 31st call is received, the oldest call is deleted.

Caller information can be viewed on the display one item at a time (page 38) or confirmed by printing the Caller ID list (page 91).

LWhen caller information is received and it matches a telephone number stored in the unit’s one-touch dial or navigator directory,

the stored name will be displayed.

LIf the unit is connected to a PBX (Private Branch Exchange) system, caller information may not be received properly. Consult your

PBX supplier.

LIf the unit cannot receive caller information, the following will be displayed:

–“OUT OF AREA”: The caller dialed from an area which does not provide Caller ID service.
