Caller ID Service

Using Caller ID service

Important:

LThis unit is Caller ID compatible. To use Caller ID features, you must subscribe to your telephone company’s Caller ID service.

For all local and national incoming calls, your display will show the area code (e.g. 09 for Auckland) or the cellular prefix (e.g. 0274 for Telecom Cellular) followed by the caller’s phone number. An Auckland caller’s number will be displayed as 09XXXXXXX. The 7 X’s represent the 7 digits of the caller’s phone number. A caller from a 6-digit Telecom Cellular number will be displayed as 0274XXXXXX. For incoming international calls, your display may only show “0000”. For business users on a Centrex line, your display will show Centrex extension numbers in the shorter extension number format used within your company.

Using toll services from Telecom or another company

Your telephone company may charge you for a local call if the number dialled has the area code prefix included. If this is unacceptable, dial only the 7-digit local number. Do not dial the “0” prefix or the area code.

Caller ID features

When an outside call is being received, the calling party’s phone number will be displayed.

Phone numbers for the last 50 different callers will be logged in the caller list, allowing you to return missed calls. Caller information is stored by the most recent call to the oldest.

LWhen Caller ID information is received and it matches a phone number stored in the phonebook:

The stored name will be displayed and logged in the caller list. (Private name display)

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 46).

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

Out of area”: The caller dialled from an area which does not provide Caller ID service.

Private caller”: The caller requested not to send caller information.

LIf the unit is connected to a PBX system, caller information may not be received properly. Consult your PBX supplier.

LIf the name display service is available in your area, the display will show callers’ names. For further information, please contact your telephone company.
