							Caller ID Service
28For assistance, please visit http://www.panasonic.com/phonehelp
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.
LThe number of missed calls can also be 
shown on the multiple handsets (KX-
TG5672/KX-TG5673, page 30).
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 22). Please 
contact your telephone company for 
details and availability of this service in 
your area.
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 
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.
LName pronunciation may vary. This 
feature may not pronounce all names 
correctly.
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 41), the unit does not 
announce the caller’s name. If “Toll 
saver” is selected and there is a new 
message, the unit does not announce 
the caller’s name.
LWhen 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.
LThis feature can be turned on or off 
(page 35).

Ringer ID
This feature can help you identify who is 
calling by using different ringers for 
different callers stored in the phonebook. 
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.
If you select “No Ringer ID”, the 
handset uses the ringer tone you selected 
on page 34 when a call is received from 
that caller. The default setting is “No 
Ringer ID”.

calling by using different ringer indicator 
colors for different callers stored in the 
handset phonebook. 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.
If you select “No Light-up ID”, the 
handset uses the ringer indicator color you 
selected on page 34 when a call is 
received from that caller.

Caller ID number auto edit feature
Once you call back an edited number, the 
unit can automatically edit other incoming 
phone numbers each time you receive a 
call.
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 
call these local numbers using caller 
information without dialing the area code.
To activate this feature, you must edit an 
item in the caller list, then call that number. 
After that, phone numbers from that 
caller’s area code are edited automatically. 
This feature can be turned on or off (page 
34).
Note:
LPhone numbers from the 4 most recently 
edited area codes are automatically 
edited.
LIf you move to another area, you can 
turn this feature off to erase previously 
edited area codes. To use this feature 
again, turn it on and reprogram the area 
codes you want to edit once again.Example:
