Setting the Talking Caller ID Feature
After subscribing to a Caller ID service, the handset and the base unit will
display a caller’s name and phone number (p. 34). Name and telephone
number Caller ID service is required. This Talking Caller ID feature allows
the unit to announce a displayed caller’s name through the handset and
base unit speakers while a call is being received (p. 34). You can listen to
the caller’s name instead of looking at the display.
For example, if you receive a call from “JOHN SMITH”, the unit will
display “SMITH, JOHN” and announce “
Call from SMITH, JOHN
”
repeatedly until you or the answering system answer the call.
Your unit comes with this feature turned ON, but you may turn it OFF.
Make sure the unit is in the standby mode initially.
