Displaying the caller's
number
When you receive a call, the caller's number
is displayed on the screen, if the following
prerequisites are met.
u
Your network provider supports CLIP, CLI.
– CLI (Calling Line Identification): The
caller's number is transmitted.
– CLIP (Calling Line Identification Pres-
entation): The caller's number is dis-
played.
u
You have requested CLIP from your net-
work provider.
u
The caller has arranged CLI with the net-
work provider.

Notes on calling line display
(CLIP)
By default, the number of the caller is shown
in the display of your Gigaset telephone. You
do not have to make any other settings on
your Gigaset telephone.
However, if the caller's number is not
displayed, this can be due to the
following:
u
You have not ordered CLIP from your net-
work provider
u
Your telephone is connected via a PABX
or a router with an integrated PABX
(gateway) that does not transmit all infor-
mation.
Is your telephone connected via a
PABX/gateway?
You can establish this by checking for an
additional device connected between your
telephone and home connection e.g., a
PABX, gateway etc. In most cases, simply
resetting this device will remedy the situa-
tion:
¤
Briefly disconnect the PABX power plug.
Re-insert the plug and wait for the device
to restart.
If the caller number is still not
displayed:
¤
Check the CLIP settings of your PABX and
activate this function if necessary. In the
user guide for the device, search for the
term "CLIP" (or an alternative term such as
"calling line identification", "phone
number transmission", "caller ID" etc.).
If necessary, contact the device manufac-
turer.
If this does not resolve the problem, it is pos-
sible that your network provider does not
provide the CLIP service for this number.
Please note
The ringtone can be switched off for
unknown calls (calls with Calling Line
Identification withheld) (
