CALLER ID AND

CIDCW (CALLER ID

ON CALL WAITING)

You must subscribe to Caller ID services

through your local telephone provider to use

these features.
When the telephone rings, the Caller ID

feature allows you to view the caller’s name,

phone number, date and time of call. With

CIDCW (Caller ID on Call Waiting), you will

hear a call waiting tone while you are on a

call, and the Caller ID data is displayed. To

accept the waiting call, press

TALK/FLASH

(or

the

FLASH

soft key

on the base).

Additionally, you can dial a number stored in

the Caller ID list or save data to your

Phonebook locations.

!

When the Caller ID message is received,

the display shows the caller’s phone

number along with the date and time. The

incoming call information is stored in the

Caller ID record. If the Caller ID service

includes the caller’s name, the name will

appear in the display (up to 15 characters).

Ô

• If you answer a call

before the Caller ID

Caller ID message will
not appear.

• When the call is received

via a telephone company
that does not offer Caller
ID service, the caller’s
phone number and
name does not appear.
(This includes some
international calls.)

• When the call is via a

private branch exchange
(PBX), the caller’s phone
number and name may
not appear.

IMPORTANT

!

Memory locations for Caller
ID messages and
Phonebook locations
(including Speed Dials) are
common, you can store up
to all 100 locations for each
handset or the base. A
Caller ID message is not
stored when you have
stored 100 of the
phonebook locations. When
you have stored all 100 of
the phonebook locations
and Caller ID messages in
total, the earliest Caller ID
message is overwritten.
