Setting Caller ID options
There are three Caller ID setup options available; they are AutoTalk,
CIDCW (Caller ID on Call Waiting), and Area Code.
AutoTalk
allows you to answer the phone without pressing the
button. If the phone rings when AutoTalk is on, simply
remove the handset from the cradle and the phone automatically
answers the call. If the phone rings when AutoTalk is off, you must
press to answer the call.
Caller ID on Call Waiting (CIDCW)
performs the same as regular
Caller ID on a call waiting number.
You must subscribe to CIDCW from your phone company in
order to use this feature.
Area Code
allows you to program your 3-digit area code number.
When reviewing Caller ID messages, you will see only a seven digit
number for calls received from inside your area code. For calls from
outside your area code, you will see a full 10-digit number.
