CID-CALLER ID
Special Message Indicators
Out of Area Calls
If for any reason the telephone number
of the caller is unavailable, or if the
caller is outside the CID service area,
the message UNAVAILABLE is dis-
played on the LCD.
“Private” Calls
If the caller has exercised the option
to block his or her number from being
sent, then the display will show
PRIVATE.
Transmission Error
If an error is detected, then the CID
information is incomplete and will
not be displayed. “TRANSMISSION
ERROR” will be displayed on the LCD
screen.
The occasional appearance of
“TRANSMISSION ERROR” on your
display does not indicate a problem
with your unit or your telephone line.
However, if this appears frequently,
you may want to notify your telephone
company.
However, when you dial directly from
CID memory, only the last 7 digits of
the received telephone number will be
used. Consequently, you would actually
dial this:
The VTech VT 1920c was designed to
accommodate this situation. If you
need to temporarily add a long dlstance
prefix and /or area code (such as 1503)
before the CID number, do the following:
•
Beginning from the standby mode,
key in the necessary digits. Your
display will look like this:
•
Then, to temporarily add the last 7
digits only from a CID memory,
press CID .
•
Using the (*) and (#) keys,
scroll through the received calls to
locate the number you wish to dial.
•
Once you have located the number
you wish to dial, simply press
PHONE. The last seven digits will
be added to the numbers already
in the LCD, and the whole number
shown below will be automatically
dialed.
