Caller ID
7
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 will show 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 will see the first 16 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 Printing the 
Caller ID List on page 57.)
Note
Caller ID service varies with different 
carriers. Call your local telephone 
company to find out about the kind of 
service available in your area.
