Ô NOTES Ô
•If you answer a call before the Caller ID message is received (for example, before the second ring), the Caller ID message will not appear.
•When the call is received via a telephone company that does not offer Caller ID service, the caller’s phone number and name does not appear. (This includes some international calls.)
•When the call is via a private branch exchange (PBX), the caller's phone number and name may not appear.

CALLER ID
CALLER ID AND CIDCW
(CALLER ID ON CALL WAITING)
You must subscribe to Caller ID services through your local telephone provider to use these features.
When the telephone rings, the Caller ID feature allows you to view the caller’s name, and phone number along with the date and time of call. With CIDCW (Caller ID on Call Waiting), you will hear a call waiting tone while you are on a call, and the Caller ID data is displayed. To accept the waiting call, press talk/FLASH (see “Flash and Call Waiting” on page 29). Ô
Additionally, you can dial a number stored in the Caller ID list or save data to your Phonebook locations.
When the Caller ID message is received, the display shows the caller's phone number along with the date and time. The incoming call information is stored in the Caller ID record. If the Caller ID service includes the caller's name, the name will appear in the display (up to 15 characters).
You may receive any one of the following messages:
When a private name is received
Private Name
When a private number is received
Private Number
When a unknown name is received
Unknown Name
When a unknown number is received
Unknown Number
When invalid data is received
