Caller ID announce
The caller ID announce feature lets you know who’s calling
without having to look at the display. When you have an
incoming call, the handset speaks
“Call from...”
and the name
of the caller based on the phonebook or caller ID information.
If the caller’s name is private or unknown, the phone number
up to the last 11 digits will be announced. If the caller’s phone
number is also private or unknown, no information will be
announced.

NOTES
To use the caller ID announce feature, you must subscribe to caller ID service from your
telephone service provider.
When there are more than four handsets registered, the telephone system supports
caller ID announce for the first four registered handsets only.
This feature does not announce information for call waiting calls.
It takes at least 2 rings for the phone to receive caller ID information and announce it. If
the phone is answered before the end of the second ring, the phone won’t have time to
announce the caller’s information.
Pronunciation of names may vary with this feature. Not all names may be pronounced
correctly.
When this feature is on, the telephone plays both the caller ID information and the ringer
at the same time when there is an incoming call. Caller ID announce is available in
English only.
