The Caller ID Number Auto Edit Feature
(Cordless\Handset)
There are 3 patterns of phone number (a, b, and c, p. 37, 38). This
feature allows your phone to automatically edit an in-coming Caller ID
number into one pattern you preferred, and display the Caller ID number
with that pattern on the base unit and cordless handset automatically.
After this feature is activated, Caller ID numbers coming from considered
area codes (201, for example), from which the Caller ID numbers have
been chosen to follow the desired pattern (7 digit pattern, for example),
will be automatically edited from other patterns (11 digit pattern, for
example) into the same pattern you have previously selected (which is
7 digit pattern, in the example).
Up to 4 area codes are allowed for this feature for pattern aand b
(p. 37, 38). The Caller ID numbers can be edited automatically on the
base unit and the cordless handset separately. Changes made on the
cordless handset cannot be used to make a call with the base unit and
vice versa.
To activate this feature, you must 1) set this feature to on, and 2) make
an out-going call from Caller List (p. 36) with a number which has one of
3 patterns that you have edited with considered area code, and that you
prefer to be followed by future Caller ID numbers, so that in the future all
the Caller ID numbers coming from the same area code will be displayed
in the same pattern.
The Caller ID number Auto Edit feature is preset to ON at factory.
≥If you fail to reach your destination when making the call, the phone number you
dialed might have an incorrect pattern, please edit the phone number with
another pattern (p. 37, 38).
For example, if you move to another area, you may need to turn this
feature to OFF to erase previously edited area codes. Then, if still need,
you may activate this feature again.
Make sure the base unit and cordless handset are not being used.
