availability of this service in your area.  
Caller ID features  
When an outside call is being received,  
the calling party’s name and phone  
number are displayed.  
Caller information for the last 50 callers  
is logged in the caller list by the most  
recent call to the oldest.  
Talking Caller ID  
This feature lets you know who is calling  
without looking at the display. When a  
call comes in, the handset and base unit  
announce the caller’s name or phone  
number displayed on the handset  
following every ring.  
To use this feature, you must subscribe  
to Caller ID service of your telephone  
service provider.  
LGenerally caller information is  
displayed from the 2nd ring.  
LIf the unit cannot receive caller  
information, the following is  
displayed:  
The unit announces in English only.  
LIf the caller’s phone number is stored  
in the phonebook of the handset 1  
(extension No. 1), all handsets and  
the base unit announce the name  
stored in handset 1 phonebook. If  
handset 1 does not have a link to the  
base unit (battery is empty, for  
instance), remaining handsets and  
the base unit announce the Caller ID  
name or number received from the  
telephone service provider.  
– “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.  
LIf the unit is connected to a PBX  
system, caller information may not be  
received properly. Consult your PBX  
supplier.  
LName pronunciation may vary. This  
feature may not pronounce all names  
correctly.  
Missed calls  
If a call is not answered, the unit treats  
the call as a missed call. You can view  
the number of missed calls by pressing  
{View CID}.  
LCaller ID supports names of up to 15  
letters. If the caller’s name has more  
than 15 letters, the name is not  
displayed or announced correctly.  
LUsually the unit announces the  
caller’s name after the 2nd ring. If you  
turn on the answering system and set  
the ring count to “2” (page 34), the  
unit does not announce the caller’s  
name. If “Toll saver” is selected

Ringer ID/Light-up ID  
This feature can help you identify who is  
calling by using different ringers and  
ringer indicator colors for different  
callers stored in the phonebook. You  
can assign a different ringer and  
indicator color to each phonebook item.  
When a call is received from a caller  
stored in the phonebook, the assigned  
ringer rings and the assigned ringer  
indicator color flashes after Caller ID  
information is displayed.  
If you select “No Ringer ID” (default)  
or “No Light-up ID” (default), the  
handset uses the ringer tone or ringer  
indicator color you selected on page 28  
when a call is received from that caller.  
Note:  
LEach handset has its own caller list.  
The number of missed calls may differ  
between handsets. Even if you  
viewed the caller list or answered a  
call on one handset, the same  
information is still recognized as a  
missed call in the other handsets.

Programming  
*1 If “System setting” column is checked, you do not need to program the same item  
using another handset.  
*2 If you subscribe to Caller ID service and want to view the caller’s information after  
lifting up the handset to answer a call, turn off this feature.  
*3 Turn this feature off if you prefer not to hear key tones while you are dialing or  
pressing any keys, including confirmation tones and error tones.  
*4 If you subscribe to a distinctive ring service (such as IDENTA-RING), select a tone  
(tone 1 to 3). If you select a melody, you cannot distinguish lines by their ringers.  
*5 The flash time depends on your telephone exchange or host PBX. Consult your  
PBX supplier if necessary. The setting should stay at “700ms” unless pressing  
{FLASH} fails to pick up the call waiting call.  
*6 Generally, the line mode setting should not be adjusted. If “Line in use” is not  
displayed or the IN USE indicator on the base unit does not light properly when  
another phone connected to the same line is in use, you need to change the line  
mode to “A”.

switches to another prerecorded  
greeting message asking callers to  
call again later.  
– If you recorded your own greeting  
message, the same message is still  
announced to callers even though  
their messages are not recorded.

Voice Mail is an automatic answering  
service offered by your telephone  
service provider. After you subscribe to  
this service, the telephone service  
provider’s Voice Mail system will  
answer calls for you when you are  
unavailable to answer the phone or  
when your line is busy. Messages are  
recorded by the telephone service  
provider, not your telephone.  
To erase the Voice Mail access  
number  
Repeat step 1, then press and hold  
{Clear} until all digits are erased. Press  
{Save}, then press {OFF}.  
Voice Mail (VM) tone  
detection  
Your telephone service provider sends  
special signals (sometimes called  
“Voice Mail tones” or “stutter tones”) to  
the unit to let you know you have new  
Voice Mail messages. If you hear a  
series of dial tones followed by a  
continuous dial tone after you press  
{C} or {SP-PHONE}, you have new  
Voice Mail messages. Minutes after you  
hang up a call or after the phone stops  
ringing, your unit will check the phone  
line to see if new Voice Mail messages  
have been recorded.  
Important:  
LTo use the Voice Mail service  
provided by your telephone service  
provider rather than the unit’s  
answering system, turn off the  
answering system (page 30).  
Storing the Voice Mail (VM)  
access number  
In order to listen to your Voice Mail  
messages, you must dial your  
telephone service provider’s Voice Mail  
access number. Once you have stored  
your Voice Mail access number, you  
can dial it automatically (page 37).  
Turn this feature off when:  
– You do not subscribe to Voice Mail  
service.

not send Voice Mail tones.

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:  
– 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.  
– Consult the dealer or an experienced
