The AT&T EL52103 phone has Caller ID functionality, which allows it to display incoming calls. To ensure this feature works:
1. Subscribe to Caller ID Service – Contact your telephone service provider to activate Caller ID. 2. Check Phone Setup – The phone is designed to display Caller ID information automatically when a call is received. 3. Ensure Proper Connection – Make sure the phone line is properly connected and functioning. 4. Verify Display Settings – The Caller ID should appear on the screen when an incoming call is received if the service is active.
No additional programming is required on the phone itself beyond ensuring Caller ID service is enabled.
