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, phone number, 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 on the handset or flash/find hs on the base. Additionally, you can dial a number stored in the Caller ID list or save data to your Phonebook locations.

Important:

Memory locations for Caller ID messages and Phonebook locations (including Speed Dials) are common, you can store up to all 100 locations for each handset and the base. A Caller ID message is not stored when you have stored 100 of the phonebook locations. When you have stored all 100 of the phonebook locations and Caller ID messages in total, the earliest Caller ID message is overwritten.

The date and time received

Caller's name

Caller's phone number

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).
