Using the CID Announce (Base Only)

The CID Announce feature is a Caller ID that Talks and verbally announces from the base the name of incoming callers when you receive a call. To use this feature, you must subscribe to Caller ID service from your telephone company and you must have the CID Announce switch set to on.

Viewing Caller ID Information

With a Caller ID subscription from your local telephone company, you have two different ways to view Caller ID information. The first way is to look at your cordless handset or base unit when you receive an incoming call. The second is to view your Caller ID history list. To view your CID list, follow these steps:

1) With the phone in standby, press [CID] on the cordless handset ([cid] on the base). The summary screen appears. The screen shows the number of new messages and total messages.

2) To view the Caller ID information in historical order (from new to old or from old to new), use [volume//-]on the cordless handset ([select/-]on the base) to scroll through the data from the latest to the earliest, or [volume//+] on the cordless handset ([select/+ ] on the base) to scroll back through the messages.

3) To finish viewing the CID information, press [CID] on the cordless handset ([cid] on the base).

While viewing Caller ID information from your CID list, you may notice that a number will appear next to the received time of some Caller ID information. This indicates the number of times that you have received a call from that number. Once you view the information, the number will be cleared.
