Caller ID The Caller ID feature of this machine lets you use the Caller ID subscriber service offered by many local phone companies. This service provides you, by means of the screen display, the name or telephone number of your caller as the line rings. (See Printing Caller ID List, page 5-14.) After a few rings, the screen displays the telephone number of your caller (or name, if available). Once you pick up the handset, the Caller ID information disappears from the screen, but the call information remains stored in the Caller ID memory. s You will see the first 16 characters of the number or name. s OUT OF AREA display means call originates outside your Caller ID service area. s PRIVATE CALL display means the caller has intentionally blocked transmission of information. s CALL PICKUP display remains on the screen when no Caller ID information was transmitted. If both the name and number are received, the screen displays only the name. You can print a list of Caller ID information received by your machine. Caller ID service varies with different carriers. Call your local phone company to determine the kind of service available in your area.
