Caller ID Service
This unit is compatible with Caller ID services offered by your telephone company. If
you subscribe to Caller ID, caller names and phone numbers will be displayed and
recorded in the Caller List.

How Caller ID information is displayed and announced

When a call comes in, the unit will ring and Caller ID
information will be received. The handset display will
show the caller’s information, then the handset and base
unit will announce the displayed name (ex. “Call from
ROBINSON, TINA”) following every ring (Talking Caller
ID feature, p. 33).
•The handset and base unit announce the caller’s name repeatedly until the call is
answered.
•After you answer the call, the display will show the length of the call.
•If the unit does not receive Caller ID information, one of the following will be
displayed:
•Depending on radio communications with the base unit, the handset may not
display Caller ID information immediately after the first ring.
•If your unit is connected to a PBX which does not support Caller ID, you cannot
access Caller ID service.
•Name display service may not be available in some areas. For further information,
please contact your telephone company.
•If you subscribe to both Caller ID and Call Waiting with Caller ID service (CWID),
when a second call is received while talking, a call waiting tone will be heard and
the second caller’s information will be displayed (p. 51).
Contact your telephone company for details about availability in your area, and to
verify that CWID service is activated on your telephone line.
