Caller ID Service
For assistance, please visit http://www.panasonic.com/phonehelp 47
Using caller ID service
This unit is compatible with Caller ID
services offered by your telephone service
provider. If you subscribe to Caller ID,
caller names and phone numbers will be
displayed and recorded in the Caller List.
The base unit and each cordless handset
can record information of up to 50 different
callers in the caller list.
The Caller List information is sorted from
the most recent to the oldest call. When
the base unit or cordless handset receives
the 51st call, the oldest call is deleted.
Using this list, you can automatically call
back a caller. You can store the callers’
names and numbers from the Caller List in
the Phonebook.
If you subscribe to both Caller ID and Call
Waiting services, when a second call is
received on the same line, the new caller’s
name and phone number are displayed.
See “For call waiting service users” on
page 41.
How caller information is displayed
when a call is received
When a call comes in, the unit will ring and
Caller ID information will be displayed. The
display shows the caller’s information and
the called line after the first ring.
LAfter you answer the call, the display will
show the length of the call.
Personalized name display
If you receive a call from one of the phone
numbers stored in the Phonebook, the
base unit/cordless handset will show the
caller’s name that has been stored in the
Phonebook instead of the incoming caller
ID information.
LIf the unit cannot receive caller
information, the following will be
displayed:
“Out of area”: The caller dialed from
an area which does not provide Caller ID
service.
“Private caller”: The caller
requested not to send caller information.
LIf the unit is connected to a PBX system,
caller information may not be received
properly. Consult your PBX supplier.
LIf two lines receive calls at the same
time, each caller’s information will be
displayed alternately.
LThe name display service may not be
available in some areas. For more
information, please contact your
telephone service provider.
LIf the cordless handset loses contact
with the base unit when a call is
received, the caller information will not
be recorded in the cordless handset’s
Caller List.
LCaller ID information will not be
displayed on the base unit when the
automated attendant system is
responding to a call (page 66). Caller ID
information will be displayed on the
called cordless handset or the base unit
after the caller enters the extension
number.
LIf caller ID information has been withheld
by the caller, no caller ID information will
be displayed.
