ˆCaller ID Operation

If you subscribe to Caller ID service from your phone company, the phone company sends information about the call, as well as the time and date, between the first and second rings of every call you receive.

It also shows if the caller information is unavailable or if the name and number were blocked by the caller (see “Caller ID Messages”).
