Screen unknown home calls
If Smart call blocker is on, and you have
set profile to screen unknown home
calls, the telephone plays a screening
announcement to the caller when
receiving the following incoming
home calls. It asks the caller to respond
before putting the call through to you.
• Incoming home calls with numbers
that are “out of area“ or with
numbers set to “Private“;
• Incoming home calls with absent
caller ID numbers;
• Incoming home calls with numbers
that are not in your phonebook,
allow list, nor block list; or
• Incoming home calls with names
that are not in your star name list.
Screen calls and ask for caller names
When screening a home call, the
telephone announces to the caller,
“Hello. Calls to this number are being
screened by Smart call blocker. Please
say your name after the tone, then
press pound.”
After the caller completes the request,
the telephone announces to the caller
“Please wait a moment while your call
is connected.”
The telephone starts ringing and the
handset screen displays
Screened call
.
After you pick up the call, the telephone
announces the caller’s name, and then
asks whether you want to answer or
reject the call, or to forward the call to
the answering system.
NOTES

these calls when they come in again.

the caller with
“Hello. Calls to
this number are being screened
