Caller ID Service 34For assistance, please visit http://www.panasonic.com/help Using Caller ID service Important: LThis unit is Caller ID compatible. To use Caller ID features, you must subscribe to a Caller ID service. Contact your service provider/ telephone company for details. Caller ID features When 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. L If the unit cannot receive caller information, the following is displayed: –“Out of area ”: The caller dials from an area which does not provide a Caller ID service. – “Private caller ”: The caller requests not to send caller information. – “Long distance ”: The caller makes a long distance call. L If the unit is connected to a PBX system, caller information may not be properly received. Contact your PBX supplier. Missed calls If 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. Phonebook name display When caller information is received and it matches a phone number stored in the phonebook, the stored name in the phonebook is displayed and logged in the caller list. Group ringer tone for phonebook This 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 22). When a call is received from a caller assigned to a group, the group’s ringer you selected rings after the caller information is displayed. If you select “ No ringer ID ” (default), the unit uses the ringer tone you selected on page 30 when calls from this group are received. 1Proceed with the operation for your unit.

Base unit: Press {LINE 1 } or { LINE 2 }. Caller ID number auto edit feature Once you call back an edited number, the unit remembers the Area Code and Format of the Edited Number. Next time when someone calls from the same Area Code, caller information is customized by the unit as follows: – When the call is being received, the Caller ID number is displayed in the same Format as the Edited Number. – After the call is ended, the phone number of the caller, when reviewed from the Caller list, is displayed in the same Format as the Edited Number. For example, you can use this feature to set the unit to ignore the area code of callers in your area, so that you can call these local numbers using caller information without dialing the area code. To activate this feature, you must edit an entry in the caller list, then call that number. After that, phone numbers from that caller’s area code are edited automatically. Note: L Phone numbers from the 4 most recently edited area codes are automatically edited. L If 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.
