To use the voice announce caller ID feature, you must subscribe to caller ID
service from your telephone service provider.
Only the first four registered handsets will be able to use this feature.
If the phone number of the incoming call matches the last 7 digits of a
directory entry, the name will be announced as it appears in the entry.
The phone number will be announced when the name is unknown, private
or not provided. Only the last 11 numbers of a phone number is announced.
No information will be announced if both the name and number are private,
unknown or not provided.
This feature is not supported with headsets.
This feature does not announce information for call waiting calls.
If both home and cell lines are ringing, only the caller ID information of the
first ringing line will be announced.
It takes at least 2 rings for the phone to receive caller ID information and
announce it. If the phone is answered before the end of the second ring, it
will not have time to announce the caller ID information.
Pronunciation of names may vary with this feature. Not all names may be
pronounced correctly.
