your telephone company's Caller ID
service.
Caller ID features
When an outside call is being received, the
calling party's phone number will be
displayed.

allowing you to return missed calls. Caller
information is stored by the most recent
call to the oldest.
L When Caller ID information is received
and it matches a phone number stored
in the phonebook:
– The stored name will be displayed and
logged in the caller list. (Private name
display)
– The handset will use the ringer tone
and the ringer indicator colour you
assigned to the caller. (Ringer ID and
light-up ID)
L Colour display models (KX-TGA582AL
only):
When Caller ID information is received
and it matches a phone number stored
in the phonebook, the handset will
display the picture you assigned to the
caller. (Picture ID)
L While listening to a message recorded
by the answering system, using the
handset, you can call back the caller
without having to dial the phone number
(page 64).
L If the unit cannot receive caller
information, the following will be
displayed:
"Out of area": The caller dialled from
an area which does not provide Caller ID
service.

L If the unit is connected to a PBX system,
caller information may not be received
properly. Consult your PBX supplier.
L If the name display service is available in
your area, the display will show callers'
names. For further information, please
contact your telephone company.
Call waiting and Caller ID
compatible
If you subscribe to Caller ID service, your
handset displays the 2nd caller's
information while talking. After you hear a
call waiting tone, the caller's phone
number will be displayed.
You can answer the 2nd call, keeping the
1st call on hold.
Follow Telstra or your service provider
instructions using {RECALL}.
L If the phone number is stored in the
phonebook with its name, the caller's
name will also be displayed.
L Please contact Telstra or your service
provider for details and availability in
your area.
For Caller ID Type II users
When you receive a 2nd call during a
conversation, you will hear a signal tone
following the call waiting tone and the
conversation will be interrupted or
muted for a short period of time. This is
not a fault of the product as these events
are normal.
L The tones are generated by the
telephone company.
