Category features for Caller ID subscribers

Categories can help you identify who is calling by using different ringtones and display colours for different categories of callers. When adding an entry to the phonebook you can assign it to the desired category (page 18). When a call is received from a caller assigned to a category, the category’s display colour and ringtone you select is used.

Changing category ringtones
