Caller ID
Caller ID - call waiting ID
Your phone is capable of displaying the number of the caller before
the call is answered (caller ID or CID). If the number is already in the
directory, the name of the caller will also be displayed. Your phone can
hold up to 50 CID entries.
The handset display informs you when there are calls that have not
been answered by a system handset. These are missed calls. If you
answer a call before the information appears on the screen, it will not
be in the caller ID log.
After all missed CID records are reviewed, the screen will show:
• The NEW icon in the lower left corner indicates the call has not yet
been reviewed.
Your phone can also display the name and number of the call waiting caller, (call waiting caller ID,)
so you can decide whether to answer the incoming call, or continue with the current conversation
