Call blocking
The number will be blocked and added to the blocked calls list if Caller ID is
displayed. For calls with no caller number, withheld or unavailable you can
also use the Block button to reject the call. The caller will hear, “Calls to this
number are being screened by Call blocking, the person you are calling is not
accepting your call. Please hang up.”
During a call
If you have already answered the call and then decide you want to block the
number, press
b
. If the number is displayed in the Caller ID, the display will
give you the option to select
Yes
and the number will be added to the blocked
numbers list and end the call, or select
No
to go back to the caller.

How do you accept, block or send a call to the answer
phone?
1. Call blocking answers a call for you and asks the caller to say (“announce”)
who they are.
2. Your CT610 then rings with the Announced call on the display and tells you
the caller’s name when you pick up. (e.g. “You have a call from Mark”).
3. You now choose to:
• accept the call, press
1
• always accept their calls, press
2
• block their calls, press
3
, or
b
• send this call to the answer phone, press
4
• ignore the call, just hang up (this call won’t be added to your blocked list)
Note
When a call starts ringing, you can block it straight away by pressing the
b
button. That number will then be added to your blocked list.
