Call block (Call Display 
subscribers only)
This feature allows the unit to reject calls 
when:
– the unit receives a call from a phone 
number stored in the call block list as 
unwanted (“Storing unwanted callers”, page 
26).
– the unit receives a call without phone 
number (“Blocking incoming calls without 
phone number”, page 26).
When a call is received, the unit rings for a 
short time while the caller is being identified. If 
the phone number matches an entry in the call 
block list, the unit sends out a busy tone to the 
caller, and then disconnects the call.
Important:
LWhen the unit receives a call from a number 
that is stored in the call block list or a call 
without a recognized phone number, the 
call is logged in the caller list (page 30) with 
$ after the call is disconnected.
Storing unwanted callersYou can store up to 30 phone numbers in the 
call block list.
Important:
LWe recommend storing 10 digits (including 
an area code). If only 7 digits are stored, all 
numbers that have the same last 7 digits will 
be blocked.

Using Call Display service
Important:
LThis unit is Call Display compatible. To use 
Call Display features, you must subscribe to 
a Call Display service. Contact your service 
provider/telephone company for details.
Call Display featuresWhen an outside call is being received, the 
caller’s name and phone number are 
displayed.
Caller information for the last 50 callers is 
logged in the caller list from the most recent 
call to the oldest.
LIf the unit cannot receive caller information, 
the following is displayed:
–“Unavailable”: The caller dials from 
an area which does not provide a Call 
Display service.
–“Private caller”: The caller 
requests not to send caller information.
–“Long distance”: The caller makes a 
long distance call.
LIf the unit is connected to a PBX system, 
caller information may not be properly 
received. Contact your PBX supplier.
Missed callsIf a call is not answered, the unit treats it as a 
missed call. The display shows “Missed 
call”. This lets you know if you should view 
the caller list to see who called while you were 
away.
Note:
LEven when there are unviewed missed 
calls,“Missed call” disappears from the 
standby display if the following operation is 
performed by one of the registered 
handsets:
– Being replaced on the base unit or 
charger.
– Pressing {OFF}.
Phonebook name displayWhen caller information is received and it 
matches a phone number stored in the phonebook, the stored name in the phonebook

– subscribe to a Call Display service of your 
service provider/telephone company.
– turn this feature on (page 23).

following every ring.
*1 KX-TG4131 series: page 3
LName pronunciation may vary. This feature 
may not pronounce all names correctly.
LCall Display service has a limit of how many 
characters can be displayed. If the caller’s 
name is too long, the handset may not be 
able to display or announce the entire 
name.
LThe announcement is heard at the same 
level as the ringer volume (page 16, 17, 22).
LIf you turn on the answering system and set 
the number of rings “2 rings” (page 35), 
the unit does not announce the caller 
information. If “Toll saver” is selected 
and there is a new message, the unit does 
not announce the caller information.
LWhen you receive a call while on the phone, 
the 2nd caller’s name is not announced 
even if you subscribe to both Call Display 
and Visual Call Waiting services.
Phonebook name announcementWhen caller information is received and it 
matches a phone number stored in the 
phonebook, the stored name in the phonebook 
is announced.
Ringer IDThis feature can help you identify who is 
calling by using different ringer tones for 
different groups of callers. When adding an 
entry to the phonebook, you can assign it to 
the desired group (page 19). When a call is 
received from a caller assigned to a group, the
