LPlease contact your service provider/
telephone company for details and
availability of this service in your area.
LGenerally caller information is

displayed:
– “Out of area”: The caller dialed
from an area which does not
provide Caller ID service.
– “Private caller”: The caller
requested not to send caller
information.
– “Long distance”: The caller
called you long distance.
Group settings for handset
phonebook
Group settings can help you identify
who is calling by using different ringer
tones and display colors for different
groups of callers. When adding an entry
to the handset phonebook you can
assign it to desired group (page 19).
When a call is received from a caller
assigned to a group, the group's display
color and ringer tone you selected are
used.
LIf the unit is connected to a PBX
system, caller information may not be
received properly. Consult your PBX
supplier.
Changing group ringer tones
If you select “No ringer ID”, the unit
will use the external ringer tone you set
on page 27 when calls from this group
are received. The default is “No
ringer ID”.
Missed calls
If a call is not answered, the unit treats
the call as a missed call. The display
shows “missed call”. This lets you
know if you should view the caller list to
see who called while you were out.

Answering System
If your service provider/telephone
company cannot do this:
Ring count
You can change the number of times
the phone rings before the unit answers
calls. You can select 2 to 7 rings, or
“Toll saver”.
– Set this unit’s “Ring count” setting
so that this unit’s answering system
answers calls before the Voice Mail
service of your service provider/
telephone company does. It is
necessary to check the ring count
required to activate the Voice Mail
service provided by your service
provider/telephone company before
changing this setting.
The default setting is “4 rings”.
“Toll saver”: The unit’s answering
system answers at the end of 2nd ring
when new messages have been
recorded, or at the end of 4th ring when
there are no new messages. If you call
your phone from outside to listen to new
messages (page 33), you will know that
there are no new messages when the
phone rings for the 3rd time. You can
then hang up without being charged for
the call.
– Change the ring count of the Voice
Mail service so that the answering
system can answer the call first. To
do so, consult your service
provider/telephone company.
Caller’s recording time
You can change the maximum
message recording time allotted to
each caller. The default setting is
