Notes on phone number display (Caller ID)

By default, the number of the caller is shown in the display of your Gigaset tele-
phone. You do not have to make any other settings on your Gigaset telephone.
However, if the caller's number is not displayed, this can be due to the
following:
u
You have not requested Caller ID from your provider
u
Your telephone is connected via a PABX or a router with an integrated PABX
(gateway) that does not transmit all information.
Is your telephone connected via a PABX/gateway?
You can establish this by checking for an additional device connected between
your telephone and home connection, e.g., a PABX, gateway etc. In most cases, sim-
ply resetting this device will remedy the situation:
¤
Briefly disconnect the PABX power plug. Re-insert the plug and wait for the
device to restart.
If the caller number is still not displayed:
¤
Check the phone number display settings of your PABX and activate this func-
tion if necessary. In the user manual for the device, search for the term "CID" (or
an alternative term such as "calling line identification", "phone number identifi-
cation", "caller ID" etc.). If necessary, contact the device manufacturer.
