cordless phone’s base unit, noise may  
be heard. Move away from the other  
cordless phone’s base unit and closer to  
your base unit.

Talking Caller ID Y  
This unit is Caller ID compatible. To use  
Caller ID features, you must subscribe to  
your telephone company’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 company’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 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 61),  
the handset does not announce the  
caller’s name. If “Toll saver” is  
selected and there is a new message,  
the handset does not announce the  
caller’s name.  
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.  
– “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.  
L This feature can be turned on or off  
(page 50).

G Caller ID Service  
Ringer ID Y o  
Caller list  
This feature can help you identify who is  
calling by using different ringers for  
different callers stored in the phonebook  
(page 31, 34). 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 31). 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  
used after Caller ID information is  
displayed.

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

Useful Information  
When you hold the phone to your ear,  
noise might be heard in your Hearing Aid.  
Some Hearing Aids are not adequately  
shielded from external RF (radio  
frequency) energy. If noise occurs, use  
an optional headset accessory or the  
speakerphone option (if applicable) when  
using this phone. Consult with 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  
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.  
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.  
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.  
− 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.  
− 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.  
Privacy of communications may not be  
ensured when using this phone.  
CAUTION:  
Any changes or modifications not  
expressly approved by the party  
responsible for compliance could void the  
user’s authority to operate this device.
