When the machine is in Fax/Tel mode, it will

alert you to pick up a voice call.
If you are at the extension telephone, you'll
need to lift the handset during the F/T Ring
and then press # 5 1 between the
pseudo/double-rings. If no one is on the line,

the call back to the machine by pressing
l

If you are at the machine, lift the external
telephone’s handset, and then press Hook to
answer.
Caller ID
5
The Caller ID feature lets you use the Caller
ID subscriber service offered by many local
telephone companies. Call your telephone
company for details. This service shows the
telephone number, or name if it is available,
of your caller as the line rings.
After a few rings, the LCD shows the
telephone number of your caller (and name, if
available). Once you answer a call, the Caller
ID information disappears from the LCD, but
the call information stays stored in the Caller
ID memory.
You can view the list or choose one of these
numbers to fax to, add to Speed Dial, or
delete from the history. (See Caller ID history
on page 18.)
 You can see the first 18 characters of the
number (or name).
 The # Unavailable message means
the call originated outside your Caller ID
service area.
 The Private Call message means the
caller has intentionally blocked
transmission of information.
You can print a list of the Caller ID information
received by your machine. (See How to print
a report on page 24.)
Note
• This feature may not be available in
certain areas of the USA and Canada.
• The Caller ID service varies with different
carriers. Call your local telephone
company to find out about the kind of
service available in your area.
