Smart call blocker
Screen robocalls
If Smart call blocker is on, and you have set
profile to screen robocalls, the telephone plays
a screening announcement to the caller when
receiving the following incoming calls. It asks the
caller to press the pound key (#) before putting the
call through to you.
Incoming calls with numbers that are "out of
f
area" or with numbers set to "Private";
Incoming calls with absent caller ID numbers;
f
Incoming calls with numbers that are not in your
f
directory, allow list, nor block list; or
Incoming calls with names that are not in your
f
star name list.
Screen calls without asking for caller names
When screening a call, the telephone announces
to the caller, "Hello. Calls to this number are being
screened by Smart call blocker. If you're a family member, friend or
invited caller, please press pound to be connected. If you're a solicitor,
please hang up now." After the caller presses the pound key (#), the
telephone announces to the caller "Please wait a moment while
your call is connected.". The telephone starts ringing, and you can
answer the call.
This option is suitable for you to filter calls that uses autodialers
to deliver pre-recorded messages, for example, robocalls and
telemarketing calls.
Notes:
The telephone announces to the caller with "Hello. Calls to this number are being screened by
f
Smart call blocker..." If you have recorded your name in the screening announcements, your record-
ed name will replace "this number" in the announcements. See Screening announcement on page
93.
If the caller hangs up before the call is screened, or without leaving his/her name while the call is
f
being screened, the call will be logged as missed call in the caller ID log.
While a call is being screened, you can press
f
screening and answer the call.
