Talking Caller ID Y
This unit is Caller ID compatible. To use
Caller ID features, you must subscribe to
your telephone service provider’s Caller ID
service.
This feature lets you know who is calling
without looking at the display. When a call
comes in, the handset announces the
caller’s name displayed on the handset
following every ring.
To use this feature, you must subscribe to
your telephone service provider’s Caller ID
service.
Caller ID features
When an outside call is being received, the
calling party’s name and telephone
number are displayed.
Caller information for the last 50 different
callers is logged in the caller list, allowing
you to return missed calls. Caller
information is stored by the most recent
call to the oldest.
L Name pronunciation may vary. This
feature may not pronounce all names
correctly.
L Caller ID service has a limit of how many
characters can be displayed. If caller’s
name is too long, the handset may not
be able to display or announce the entire
name.
L Generally caller information is displayed
from the 2nd ring.
L If the unit cannot receive caller
information, the following is displayed:
– “Out of area”: The caller dialed
from an area which does not provide
Caller ID service.
– “Private caller”: The caller
requested not to send caller
information.
L Usually the handset announces the
caller’s name after the 2nd ring. If you
turn on the answering system and set
the ring count to “2 rings” (page 50),
the handset does not announce the
caller’s name. If “Toll saver” is
the handset does not announce the
caller’s name.
– “Long distance”: The caller called
you long distance.
L When you receive a call while on the
phone, the 2nd caller’s name is not
announced even if you subscribe to both
Caller ID and Call Waiting with Caller ID
services.
L If the unit is connected to a PBX system,
caller information may not be received
properly. Consult your PBX supplier.

When caller information is received and it
matches a phone number stored in the

G Caller ID Service
Ringer ID Y ^
Caller list
This feature can help you identify who is
calling by using different ringers for
different callers stored in the phonebook
(page 22, 25). You can assign a different
ringer to each phonebook item. When a
call is received from a caller stored in the
phonebook, the ringer is used after Caller
ID information is displayed.
Caller information for the last 50 different
callers is logged in the caller list. You can
use this list to return missed calls.
Missed calls
If a call is not answered, the unit treats the
call as a missed call. The number of
missed calls is shown on the display. This
lets you know if you should view the caller
list to see who called while you were out.
Light-up ID Y
This feature can help you identify who is
calling by using different ringer indicator
colors for different callers stored in the
handset phonebook (page 22). You can
assign a different indicator color to each
handset phonebook item. When a call is
received from a caller stored in the
handset phonebook, the indicator color is

Some Hearing Aids are not adequately
shielded from external RF (radio
frequency) energy. If noise occurs, use

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:
– 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.
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.
– 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.
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.
Privacy of communications may not be
ensured when using this phone.
