4.6.1 How Caller ID is displayed
When an outside call is received, the calling
party's telephone number or name will be
displayed. You then have the option of whether
or not to answer the call.
The unit will automatically store caller
information (telephone number, name, date and
time of the call) of the last 50 different callers.
Caller information is stored by the most recent to
the oldest call. When the 51st call is received,
the oldest call is deleted.
Caller information can be viewed on the display
one item at a time (page 36) or confirmed by
printing the Caller ID list (page 104).
Note:
L When caller information is received and it
matches a telephone number stored in the
unit's phonebook:
– The stored name will be displayed.
– The cordless handset will use the ringer
indicator colour and type assigned to the
caller's category.
L If the unit is connected to a PBX (Private
Branch Exchange) system, caller information
may not be received properly. Consult your
PBX supplier.
L If the unit cannot receive caller information,
the following will be displayed:
"OUT OF AREA"/"Out of Area": The caller
dialled from an area which does not provide
Caller ID service.
"PRIVATE CALLER"/"Private Caller":
The caller requested not to send caller
information.
To confirm caller information by printing
the Caller ID list
– To print manually, see page 104.
– To print automatically after every 50 new
calls, activate feature #26 (page 66).
Private category
Private categories can help you identify who is
calling by using different ringer indicator colours
and ringer types for different categories of
callers.
You can assign items in the cordless handset
phonebook to a category (page 31), change the
category names (Friends, Family, etc., page 73),
and search for phonebook items by category
(page 32). When a call is received from a caller
assigned to a category, the ringer indicator
colour (page 73) and ringer type (page 72) you
select is used.

consult your service provider for details of this
service.
Note:
L The second caller's information will not be
displayed when:
