Caller ID Service

Using Caller ID service

Important:

- This unit is Caller ID compatible. To use Caller ID features, you must subscribe to a Caller ID service. Contact your service provider/telephone company for details.

Caller ID features

When an outside call is being received, the callers name and phone number are displayed. Caller information for the last 50 callers is logged in the caller list from the most recent call to the oldest.

- If the unit cannot receive caller information, the following is displayed:

- "Out of area": The caller dials from an area which does not provide a Caller ID service.

- "Private caller": The caller requests not to send caller information.

- "Long distance": The caller makes a long distance call.

- If the unit is connected to a PBX system, caller information may not be properly received. Contact your PBX supplier.

Missed calls

If a call is not answered, the unit treats it as a missed call. The display shows "Missed call".

Note:

- Even when there are unviewed missed calls, "Missed call" disappears from the standby display if the following operation is performed by one of the units:

- A handset is replaced on the base unit or charger.

- Pressing [OFF] on a handset.

Phonebook name display

When caller information is received and it matches a phone number stored in the phonebook, the stored name in the phonebook is displayed and logged in the caller list.

Talking Caller ID

Handset / Base unit

This feature lets you know who is calling without looking at the display.

To use this feature, you must:

– subscribe to a Caller ID service of your service provider/telephone company.

- turn this feature on (page 26).

When caller information is received, the handsets and base unit announce the caller's name or phone number received from your service provider/telephone company following every ring.

The unit announces in English only.

- Name pronunciation may vary. This feature may not pronounce all names correctly.

- Caller ID service has a limit of how many characters can be displayed. If the caller's name is too long:

– the handset may not be able to display or announce the entire name.

– the base unit may not be able to announce the entire name.

- The announcement is heard at the same level as the ringer volume (page 18, 26).

- If you turn on the answering system and set the number of rings "2 rings" (page 39), the unit does not announce the caller information. If "Toll saver" is selected and there is a new message, the unit does not announce the caller information.

- When you receive a call while on the phone, the 2nd caller's name is not announced even if you subscribe to both Caller ID and Call Waiting with Caller ID services.

Phonebook name announcement

When caller information is received and it matches a phone number stored in the phonebook, the stored name in the phonebook is announced.

Ringer ID

This feature can help you identify who is calling by using different ringer tones for different groups of callers. When adding an entry to the phonebook, you can assign it to

the desired group (page 21). When a call is received from a caller assigned to a group, the ringer you selected for that group rings after caller information is displayed. If you select "Current ringer" (default), the unit uses the ringer tone you selected on page 26 when calls from this group are received.

Once you call back an edited number, the unit which was used to call back remembers the area code and format of the edited number. The next time someone calls from the same area code, caller information is customized by the unit as follows:

• When the call is being received, the Caller ID number is displayed in the same format as the edited number.
• After the call has ended, the caller's phone number is displayed in the same format as the edited number, when reviewed from the caller list.

For example, you can use this feature to set the unit to ignore the area code of callers in your area, so that you can call these local numbers using caller information without dialing the area code.

To activate this feature, you must edit an entry in the caller list, then call that number. After that, phone numbers from that caller's area code are edited automatically.

This feature can be set for each handset (page 26). The default setting is "On".

Note:

- Phone numbers from the 4 most recently edited area codes are automatically edited.

NOTE:

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

Some cordless telephones operate at frequencies that may cause interference to nearby TVs and VCRs. To minimize or prevent such interference, the base of the cordless telephone should not be placed near or on top of a TV or VCR. If interference is experienced, move the cordless telephone further away from the TV or VCR. This will often reduce or eliminate interference.
