							Caller ID Service
For assistance, please visit http://www.panasonic.com/phonehelp29
Using Caller ID service
This unit is Caller ID compatible. To use 
Caller ID features, 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 by the 
most recent call to the oldest.
LGenerally caller information is displayed 
from the 2nd ring.
LIf 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.
LIf the unit is connected to a PBX system, 
caller information may not be received 
properly. Consult your PBX supplier.
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 handset 
display. This lets you know if you should 
view the caller list to see who called while 
you were out.
Private name display
When caller information is received and it 
matches a phone number stored in the 
phonebook, the stored name is displayed 
and logged in the caller list.
Call Waiting Caller ID display
If you subscribe to both Caller ID and Call 
Waiting with Caller ID services, the 2nd 
caller’s information is displayed after you 
hear a Call Waiting tone (page 24).

for details and availability of this service in 
your area.

your telephone company’s Caller ID 
service.
LName pronunciation may vary. This 
feature may not pronounce all names 
correctly.

phonebook item. When a call is received 
from a caller stored in the phonebook, the 
ringer is used after Caller ID information is

handset uses the ringer tone you selected 
on page 36 when a call is received from 
that caller. The default setting is “No 
Ringer ID”.

phonebook, the indicator color is used 
after Caller ID information is displayed.
