Caller ID Service
Using Caller ID service
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 being received, the calling party’s telephone number is displayed.
Telephone numbers for the last 50 callers are logged in the caller list by the most recent call to the oldest.
LIf the unit cannot receive caller information, the following is 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 shows caller names. For further information, please contact your service provider/telephone company.
Missed calls
If a call is not answered, the unit treats the call as a missed call. You can view the number of missed calls by pressing {View CID}.
Phonebook name display
When the Caller ID number is received and it matches a phone number stored
in the phonebook, the stored name from the phonebook is displayed and logged in the caller list.
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 {RECALL}. LIf the phone number is stored in the phonebook with its name, the caller’s
name will also be displayed.
LPlease 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 a fault of the product as these events are normal.
LThe tones are generated by your service provider/telephone company.
