Caller ID ServiceThis unit is compatible with a Caller ID service offered by your telephone
company. After subscribing to a Caller ID service, the calling party’s
information will be shown on the base unit and cordless handset displays
after the first ring.
The base unit can record information of up to 50 different callers in the
caller list. Each cordless handset can record information of up to 30
different callers in the Caller List.
The Caller List information is sorted from the most recent to the oldest call.
When the base unit receives the 51st call or the handset receives the 31st
call, the oldest call is deleted.
Using this list, you can automatically call back a caller. You can store the
callers’ names and numbers from the Caller List in the directory.
If you subscribe to both Caller ID and Call Waiting services, when a
second call is received on the same line, the new caller’s name and phone
number will be displayed (p. 44).
•After you answer the call, the display will show the length of the call.
•When more than one line is receiving a call, each caller’s information will be
displayed alternately.
•Caller information cannot be displayed in the following cases:
— If the caller dialed from an area which does not provide a Caller ID service, the
display will show “Out of area”.
— If the caller has requested not to display his/her information, the display will
show “Private caller”.
•If your unit is connected to a PBX which does not support Caller ID services, you
cannot access those services.
•The name display service may not be available in some areas. For more
information, please contact your telephone company.
•If the cordless handset has lost communication with the base unit when a call is
received, the caller information will not be recorded in the handset Caller List.
