Using Caller ID and Call Waiting
If you subscribe to Caller ID from your phone company, your
phone will show you the caller’s phone number and name (if
available) whenever a call comes in. If you subscribe to both Call
Waiting and Caller ID, the phone also shows you the name and
the number of any call that comes in while you are on the line.
NOTES
If you answer a call before the Caller ID message
is received (for example, before the second ring),
the Caller ID message may not appear.
When the call is received via a Telephone
Company that does not offer Caller ID service,
the caller’s phone number and name will not
appear. (This includes some international calls.)
When the Call is from a PBX (private branch
exchange), the caller’s phone number and
name may not appear, but you may see a main
company phone number for that PBX appear.
If your telephone provider supports seven-digit
dialing, you can save your local area code so it
does not display in the Caller ID list. See “
Seven-
Digit Dialing
” on page 66 for more information.

Using the Caller ID List
You can store up to 100 Caller ID numbers in each handset or the
base. Each station shares memory between the phonebook and
Caller ID with a total of 100 entries. When the shared memory
is full and when you store a new phonebook entry, the oldest
Caller ID message is overwritten. Once you reach your maximum
phonebook entries of 100, Caller ID information will not be stored
(but it will still display when the call comes in).
1. To open the Caller ID list, press (the right key on the four-
way function key).
2. Use
or on the four-way function key to scroll through
the list, or enter a letter on the keypad to jump to the first
caller ID name that starts with that letter.
