Using Caller ID service
Important:
RThis 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
Base unit / Handset
When an outside call is being received, the caller’s
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.
RIf 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.
RIf the unit is connected to a PBX system, caller
information may not be properly received.
Contact your PBX supplier.
Missed calls
Base unit / Handset
If a call is not answered, the unit treats it as a
missed call. The display shows “Missed call”.
Note:
REven 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 charger.
– Pressing MOFFN on a handset.
– Pressing MEXITN on the base unit.
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
Base unit / Handset
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 22).
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.
RName pronunciation may vary. This feature may
not pronounce all names correctly.
RCaller ID service has a limit of how many
characters can be displayed. If the caller’s name
is too long, the unit may not be able to display or
announce the entire name.
RThe announcement is heard at the same level
as the ringer volume (page 14, 21, 22).
RIf you turn on the answering system and set the
number of rings “2 rings” (page 34), 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.
RWhen 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 17).
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 22 when calls
from this group are received.

Caller ID number auto edit feature
Base unit / Handset
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 unit (page 23).
The default setting is “On”.

REN of 0.3).
If this equipment causes harm to the telephone
network, the telephone company will notify you in
advance that temporary discontinuance of service may
be required. But if advance notice isn't practical, the
telephone company will notify the customer as soon as
possible. Also, you will be advised of your right to file a
complaint with the FCC if you believe it is necessary.
The telephone company may make changes in its
facilities, equipment, operations or procedures that
could affect the operation of the equipment. If this
happens the telephone company will provide advance
notice in order for you to make necessary modifications
to maintain uninterrupted service.

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.
