by the answering system, using the  
handset, you can call back the caller  
without having to dial the phone number  
(page 51).  
L If the unit does not receive Caller ID  
information, the unit will announce “Call  
from out of area”, “Call from private  
caller”, or “Call from long distance”.  
L If the unit is connected to a PBX system,  
caller information may not be received

L Caller information includes caller names  
and phone numbers, the date and time  
of calls, and the number of times the  
caller called.  
L Name pronunciation may vary. This  
feature may not pronounce all names  
correctly.  
Missed calls  
The unit will also tell you how many calls  
you missed while you were out or  
unavailable to answer the phone.  
L The unit will announce each letter of  
abbreviations, such as “Co.” and “Inc.”.  
L Caller ID supports names of up to  
15 letters. If the caller’s name has more

Caller ID number auto edit feature using  
the handset  
Once you call back an edited number (see  
“Editing a caller’s phone number before  
calling back using the handset”), the unit  
can automatically edit other incoming  
phone numbers each time you receive a  
call.  
Editing a caller’s phone number  
before calling back using the  
handset  
You can edit a phone number in the caller  
list by removing its area code and/or the  
long distance code “1”.  
For example, you can use this feature to  
set the unit to ignore the area code of  
callers in your area code, so that you can  
call these local numbers using caller  
information without dialing the area code.  
To activate this feature, you must edit an  
item in the caller list (see “Editing a caller’s  
phone number before calling back using  
the handset”), then call that number. After  
that, calls from that caller’s area code will  
be edited automatically.  
1 Press {Rcvd calls}, {V}, or {^}.  
2 Press {V} or {^} repeatedly to display  
the desired item.  
3 Press {Select}.  
4 Press {Edit} repeatedly until the phone  
number is shown in the desired format.  
Each time you press {Edit}, the phone  
number will be rearranged into one of 3  
patterns.  
This feature can be turned on or off  
(page 42). The default setting is ON.  
Note:  
1 Local phone number  
L The handset can remember up to 4 area  
codes to be edited. Phone numbers from  
the 4 most recently edited area codes  
will be automatically edited.  
Example:

see page 55). A maximum of 64 messages  
(including a greeting message and memo  
message) can be recorded.  
Using a touch tone phone, you can call  
your phone number from outside and  
access the unit to listen to messages. The  
unit’s voice guidance will prompt you to  
press certain dial keys to perform different  
operations.  
Important:  
L If message memory becomes full:  
E flashes on the base unit.  
– the ANSWER ON indicator flashes  
rapidly (if the answering system is  
turned on).  
– the unit announces “Memory full”  
when operating the answering system  
and recording a memo message.  
To record additional messages, erase  
unnecessary messages.  
L In order to operate the answering  
system remotely, you must first set a  
remote code (page 54). This code must

the Hearing Aid mode to Telecoil. If noise  
is still heard, use an optional accessory  
headset or the speakerphone option (if  
applicable) when using this phone.  
Consult your audiologist or Hearing Aid  
manufacturer about the availability of  
Hearing Aids which provide adequate  
shielding to RF energy commonly emitted  
by digital devices.  
NOTE:  
This equipment has been tested and  
found to comply with the limits for a  
Class B digital device, pursuant to Part  
15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are  
designed to provide reasonable  
protection against harmful interference in  
a residential installation. This equipment  
generates, uses, and can radiate radio  
frequency energy and, if not installed and  
used in accordance with the instructions,  
may cause harmful interference to radio  
communications. However, there is no  
guarantee that interference will not occur  
in a particular installation. If this  
equipment does cause harmful  
interference to radio or television  
reception, which can be determined by  
turning the equipment off and on, the  
user is encouraged to try to correct the  
interference by one or more of the  
following measures:  
WHEN PROGRAMMING EMERGENCY  
NUMBERS AND(OR) MAKING TEST  
CALLS TO EMERGENCY NUMBERS:  
1) Remain on the line and briefly explain  
to the dispatcher the reason for the  
call.  
2) Perform such activities in the off-peak  
hours, such as early morning or late  
evenings.  
This device complies with Part 15 of the  
FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the  
following two conditions:  
(1) This device may not cause harmful  
interference, and (2) this device must  
accept any interference received,  
including interference that may cause  
undesired operation.  
Reorient or relocate the receiving  
antenna.  
Increase the separation between the  
equipment and receiver.  
Connect the equipment into an outlet  
on a circuit different from that to which  
the receiver is connected.  
Privacy of communications may not be  
ensured when using this phone.  
Consult the dealer or an experienced  
radio/TV technician for help.  
Some cordless telephones operate at  
frequencies that may cause interference  
to nearby TVs and VCRs. To minimize or  
prevent such interference, the base of  
the cordless telephone should not be  
placed near or on top of a TV or VCR. If  
interference is experienced, move the  
cordless telephone further away from the  
TV or VCR. This will often reduce, or  
eliminate, interference.
