If you have subscribed to caller ID service, then you can use the Smart call blocker

or off Smart call blocker:
CALL BLOCK in idle mode -> SELECT ->
Ì
Notes:
Smart call blocker is on, once you install your telephone. It allows all incoming calls to get through and
Ì
ring by default. You can change the Smart call blocker settings to screen incoming calls from numbers or
names that are not yet saved in your directory, allow list, block list, or star name list. You can easily add
incoming phone numbers to your allow list and block list. This allows you to build up your lists of allowed
and blocked numbers, and Smart call blocker will know how to deal with these calls when they come in
again.
If you turn off Smart call blocker, all incoming calls will ring, including numbers saved in your block list.

When QUIET mode is on, and Smart call blocker is on and in screening mode, all screened calls will be
Ì
sent to the answering system after screening.
