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.
