Panasonic KX-TG1857AL Using Caller ID service, Caller list, Call waiting and Caller ID compatible

Caller ID Service

Using Caller ID service

Important:

L This unit is Caller ID compatible. To use Caller ID features (such as displaying caller phone numbers), you must subscribe to Caller ID service. Consult your service provider/telephone company for details.

Caller ID features

When an outside call is received, the caller’s phone number will be displayed. L Phone numbers of the last 50 callers

will be logged in the caller list.

LWhile listening to a message recorded by the answering system using the handset, you can call back the caller without having to dial the phone number (page 27).

L When caller information is received and it matches a phone number stored in the unit’s phonebook, the stored name will be displayed and logged in the caller list.

L If the unit is connected to a PBX system, you may not receive the caller information.

L When the caller dialled from an area which does not provide Caller ID service, “Out of Area” will be displayed.

LWhen the caller requested not to send caller information, either no information or “Private Caller” will be displayed.

Missed calls

If a call is not answered, the unit treats the call as a missed call. The number of missed calls is shown on the display.

This lets you know if you should view the

caller list to see who called while you were out.

Call waiting and Caller ID compatible

If you subscribe to Caller ID service, your handset displays the 2nd caller’s information while talking. After you hear a call waiting tone, the caller’s phone number will be displayed.

You can answer the 2nd call, keeping the 1st call on hold. Follow your service provider/telephone company instructions using {R}. (Recall function) L If the phone number is stored in the

phonebook with its name, the caller’s name will also be displayed.

L Please contact your service provider/telephone company for details and availability in your area.

For Caller ID type II users

When you receive a 2nd call during a conversation, you will hear a signal tone following the call waiting tone and the conversation will be interrupted or muted for a short period of time. This is not the fault of the product as these events are normal.

L The tones are generated by the service provider/telephone company.
