Voice announce caller ID
The voice announce caller ID feature lets you know who’s calling without having to look at the display. When you have an incoming call, the handset and/or base announces the caller’s name based on the directory or caller ID information. If the caller’s name is private or unknown, the phone number will be announced. If the caller’s phone number is also private or unknown, no caller information will be announced. If the telephone number has over 11 digits, only the last 11 digits will be announced. Unless you change it, the voice announce caller ID feature is already turned on.
