How Caller ID is displayed
Note:
●
If the unit is connected to a PBX (Private Branch Exchange) system, you may not receive the caller
information. Consult your PBX supplier.
●
If the unit cannot receive caller information, the following will be displayed.
The caller dialled from an area which does not provide Caller ID service.
The caller requested not to send caller information.
PRIVATE CALLER
OUT OF AREA
The calling party’s telephone number or name will be displayed after the first ring.
You then have the option of whether or not to answer the call depending on the caller.
The unit will automatically store the caller information (telephone number, name and the time of
the call). You can view the caller information (p. 26) and print the caller ID list (p. 82).
To confirm caller information using the Caller ID list!
The unit will store information for the most recent 30 callers.
— To print manually, see page 82.
— To print automatically after every 30 new calls, activate feature #26 (p. 64).
Note for Australian users:
●
The KX-FP151AL/KX-FP155AL will not display the name from the Directory. Telstra and Optus do not
currently transmit names with the Caller ID.
Note for New Zealand users:
●
Telecom New Zealand does not currently send a NAME for Caller ID.
●
Your telephone service provider may charge you for a local call when it is dialled with an area code prefix.
If the charge for local call is unacceptable, only the 7-digits of the local number should be dialled from
your telephone. Do not dial the ‘‘0’’ prefix or the area code digit.
