Caller ID Operation
If you subscribe to Caller ID service from
your phone company, the phone company
sends information about the call, including
the time and date, between the first and sec-
ond rings of every call you receive. The sys-
tem displays this information when it
receives a call, and you can store up to 140
call records for later review. If the call infor-
mation is unavailable, or the name and num-
ber were blocked by the caller, that
information appears.
If you subscribe to Call Waiting with Caller
ID, when a call comes in, a tone sounds
through the handset, then the Caller ID
record appears. If you want to answer the in-
coming call, press
FLASH
. To resume the
previous phone conversation, press
FLASH
again.
If the Caller ID memory is full, any new call
replaces the oldest call record.
PROGRAMMING CALLER ID
There are four menu items for Caller ID oper-
ation.
Turning Caller ID/Call Waiting On/

If you subscribe to Call Waiting with Caller ID
service, you can set the phone to show Call-

Selecting the Save Method for
Received Caller ID Data
You can choose one of three ways to store
caller ID records.
ALL —
Stores all the records, answered or
unanswered. The system is preset to ALL.
UNANSWER —
Stores the records for calls
received by or transferred to your station but
not answered.
ANSWER —
Stores the records for all the
calls you answered.
Note:
If you are using the Caller ID/Call
Waiting feature, all the call data is stored no
matter what options you choose.
Setting the Access Code
If your phone system requires that you dial
an access code (9, for example) before you
dial an outside number, you can program the
phone to automatically dial the access code
when calling a stored caller ID record. The
system is preset without an access code (

appears). If an access code is not required,
leave this setting as is.
Setting the Area Code
To quickly dial a number from a Caller ID
record (see “Dialing Numbers From a Caller
ID Record” on Page 24), or to correctly store
a number from a record in a memory dialing
location (see “Storing a Caller ID Record in
Memory” on Page 25), you must store your
local area code in the memory. Then, when
you dial from a Caller ID record, the system
skips the area code if it matches the one you
stored. The system is preset without an area
code.
Note:
In some areas, the area code is nec-
essary even for a local call. If you live in such
an area, do not enter the area code.
Follow these steps to program your Caller ID
settings.
