Panasonic KX-TGE234 Storing unwanted callers, Blocking incoming calls that have no phone number

Programming

following items are available when storing phone numbers in the call block list (250 max.).

–“Block a single number”: The unit can reject calls from specific phone numbers.

–“Block range of numbers”: The unit

can reject calls that begin with a number stored in the call block list, such as a toll-free phone number prefix or certain area codes.

You can also set the unit to reject calls that do not have a phone number.

When a call is received, the unit rings briefly*1 while caller information is being received. If the caller’s phone number matches an entry in the call block list, the unit emits no sound to the caller, and disconnects the call.

*1 This is called first ring. If you do not want the first ring to sound, turn this setting to “Off” (page 34).

Important:

RRejected calls are logged in the caller list.
