Caller ID Service
This unit is compatible with a Caller ID service offered by your telephone company. If you subscribe to a Caller ID service, the calling party’s information will be shown on the handset and base unit displays after the first ring.
The unit can store up to 50 different callers in the Caller List. The Caller List information is sorted by the most recent to the oldest call. When the 51st call is received, the first call is deleted.
Using the list, you can automatically call back a caller. You can store the callers’ numbers from the Caller List into the directory.
If you subscribe to both Caller ID and Call Waiting services, when a second call is received while talking, the new caller’s phone number will be displayed (for Australia only) (p. 47).
How caller information is displayed when a call is received
The handset and base unit displays show the caller’s phone number after the first ring.*
•After you answer the call, the display will show the length of the call.
•Caller information cannot be displayed in the following cases:
support Caller ID service, the display will show “Out of area”.
•If your unit is connected to a PBX which does not support Caller ID services, you cannot access those services.
•If the name display service is available in your area, the display will show caller’s names. For further information, please contact your telephone company.
For New Zealand Users:

Call group feature (Dual-Colour Visual Ringer):
If you receive a caller ID call from one of the phone numbers stored in the directory and the item has set the feature;
–the handset and base unit will ring with a different ringer pattern,
–the handset and base unit displays will light in orange, and
–the ringer/charge indicator will flash in orange.
You can then distinguish the caller from others easily. To use this feature, store items in the directory and turn the feature on for required items (p. 31, 35, 36).
