If no one picks up the call within three rings, the telephone base stops calling it. The system only calls the alert number once. If your paging device is busy, not available or off during the call, you will not receive thenot receive the notification call.

Caller ID

About caller ID (call log)

This telephone supports caller ID services offered by most telephone service providers. Depending on your service subscription, you might see the caller’s number, or the caller’s name and number from the telephone service provider after the first or second ring. Caller ID allows you to see the name, number, date and time of calls.

Information about caller ID with call waiting

Caller ID with call waiting lets you see the name and telephone number of the caller before answering the telephone, and while on another call.

There are fees for caller ID services. In addition, this service might be called different names (such as caller ID with visual call waiting) by different telephone service providers and might not be available in all areas.

It might be necessary to change your telephone service to use this feature. Contact your telephone service provider if:

You have both caller ID and call waiting, but as separate services

• (you might need to combine these services).

You have only caller ID service, or only call waiting service.

• You don’t subscribe to caller ID or call waiting services.

•

This product can provide information only if both you and the caller are in areas offering caller ID service and if both telephone service providers use compatible equipment. The time and date are from the telephone service provider along with the call information.

Caller ID information might not be available for every incoming call. Callers may intentionally block their names and/or telephone numbers.

NOTES:

You can use this telephone with regular caller ID service, or you can use this

1. telephone’s other features without subscribing to either caller ID or combined caller ID with call waiting service.

The format of telephone numbers displayed depends on the home and local area codes

2. you set on the base.

Caller ID

Caller ID history

How caller ID history (call log) works

The handset stores caller ID information for the last 50 incoming calls. Entries are stored in reverse chronological order. The phone deletes the oldest entry when the log is full to make room for new calls.

Each extension has an independent caller ID history. Deleting the caller ID history on any one extension does not affect the caller ID history on other extensions.

If you answer a call before the information appears on the screen, it does not show in the caller ID history.

Review the caller ID history to determine who called, to easily return the call, or to copy the caller’s name and number into your directory.

XX Missed call(s) appears if there are new call log entries (including missed and unreviewed calls). Call log empty appears if there are no records in the call log.

The time and date of the call and the caller’s name and telephone number are included in the display.

Caller ID information appears on the screen as the phone rings, or until the caller hangs up, or until the call has been answered at another extension, or until the call ends.

If you subscribe to caller ID service, this phone automatically resets the time and date each time new call information is received.

NOTES:

Caller ID information might not be available for every incoming call. The callers might

Each entry can store up to 32 digits for the telephone number and 16 characters for the

2. name. If the telephone number has more than 16 but less than or equal to 24 digits, only the last 16 digits appear. If the telephone number has more than 24 digits, only the 9th to 24th digits (16 digits) appear. In order to view the entire number, you must first save the entry to the Directory (see page 56). For instructions on viewing the digits, see the note on page 49. If the telephone number has more than 32 digits, it is not saved or shown in the call log.

Caller ID

Caller ID operation

Memory match

If the incoming telephone number is an exact match with a telephone number in your directory, the name that appears on the screen matches the corresponding name in your directory.

For example, if Christine Smith calls, her name appears as Chris if this is how you entered it into your directory.

NOTE: The number you see on your caller ID is in the format from the telephone

service provider. It usually delivers 10-digit telephone numbers (area code plus telephone number). The telephone system ignores the area code when searching for a match and displays the name of the first corresponding number from the directory.

Missed (new) calls indicator

When a handset is idle and has unreviewed calls, its screen shows XX Missed call(s) and the CID softkey flashes.

All unreviewed entries are identified as missed calls. Each time you review a call log entry with the icon new, the number of missed calls decreases by one. When all the entries in the caller ID history become old (have been reviewed), the system removes the missed calls alert from the display.

Caller ID

Reasons for missing caller ID information

There are also occasions when other information or no information shows for various reasons:

On-screen message Reason

PRIVATE CALLER

UNKNOWN CALLER

The caller prefers not to show the telephone number and name.

Your telephone service provider cannot determine the caller’s name and telephone number. Calls from other countries may also generate this message.

Answering system

Handset voicemail box (answering system)

Each handset has a private voicemail box that is different from the general mailbox on the base. The voicemail messages for each handset can be accessed from that handset or telephone base.

Answering system and voicemail

Your telephone has separate indicators for two different types of voice messages: those left on its built-in answering system and those left at your service provider’s voicemail. Your telephone’s built-in answering system messages and voicemail messages are separate. Each alerts you to new messages differently.

If you turn on the COVM feature (see COVM on

• page 36 for more information) and the COVM icon displays on the handset screen, your telephone service provider is indicating that it has new voicemail for you. To listen to your voicemail, you typically dial an access number provided by your telephone service provider, followed by a security code or PIN.

To listen to messages recorded on your digital answering system,

• press the M.box softkey on the handset.

Some service providers bundle or combine multiple services like voicemail and call waiting, so you may not be aware that you have voicemail. To check what services you have and how to access them, contact your telephone service provider.

You can use your telephone answering system and voicemail together by setting your built-in answering system to answer before voicemail answers. To learn how to program your voicemail settings, contact your telephone service provider. If you are on a call, or if the answering system is busy recording a message and you receive another call, the second caller can leave a voicemail message by following the instruction below.

Set your answering system to answer calls at least two rings earlier than your voicemail is set to answer. For example, if your voicemail answers after six rings, set your answering system to answer after four rings. Some voicemail providers may program the delay before

answering calls in seconds instead of rings. In this case, allow six seconds per ring when determining the appropriate setting.

Setting your system to automatically answer calls

On the base you can set each of the four lines to automatically answer incoming calls in two different ways. See the SB67118 manual for more information.

General mailbox:

The called line rings on every extension for each incoming call. If there is no answer, the caller is prompted to leave a message in the general mailbox, which a person at any handset can review. The general mailbox stores incoming messages, memos, and recorded calls.

Auto attendant:

The called line for each incoming call flashes on every extension, but does not ring. Instead, the auto attendant answers. The caller can specify an extension or leave a general mailbox message. When the auto attendant directs a call to an extension but it is not answered, the auto attendant prompts the caller to leave a message for that extension or try another extension.

Record announcement

The announcement is the greeting callers hear when calls are answered by the handset mailbox. You can record a personal announcement up to two minutes long. (page 23)

Answering system capacity

The maximum recording time of all handsets and base is 180 minutes. The actual recording time depends on individual message characteristics. Individual messages can be up to three minutes. Messages remain available for review until you delete them.

Each recorded announcement requires system memory, so we suggest recording a brief announcement in order to leave more space for messages.

Answering system

Setting your system to automatically answer calls

NOTE: You cannot record an announcement when the telephone system is out of space. You will hear a two-beep alert tone and voice prompt “Memory is full.” Please refer to Remaining space section in the SB67118 telephone base manual.

Voice prompts

The system provides voice prompts to guide you through the setup procedures.

New message indication

When you have new messages in the handset mailbox, the screen displays New messages. In addition, the M.box softkey and the new message indicator flash.

If the notify alert is turned on (pages 21-23), you will receive a phone call at the telephone number you chose each time a new message has been recorded.

There is no new message indication on the handset when messages are left in the general mailbox.

Your cordless telephone contains sophisticated electronic parts, so you must treat it

•

with care.

Avoid rough treatment.

•

Place the handset down gently.

•

Save the original packing materials to protect your telephone if you ever need to

•

ship it.

Avoid water

You can damage your telephone if it gets wet. Do not use the handset in the rain, or

•

handle it with wet hands. Do not install the telephone base near a sink, bathtub or shower.

Electrical storms

Electrical storms can sometimes cause power surges harmful to electronic

•

equipment. For your own safety, take caution when using electric appliances during storms.

Appendix

Important safety information

Especially about cordless telephones

Privacy: The same features that make a cordless telephone convenient create

•

some limitations. Telephone calls are transmitted between the telephone base and the handset by radio waves, so there is a possibility that your cordless telephone conversations could be intercepted by radio receiving equipment within range of the cordless handset. For this reason, you should not think of cordless telephone conversations as being as private as those on corded telephones.

Electrical power: The telephone base of this cordless telephone must be connected

•

to a working electrical outlet which is not controlled by a wall switch. Calls cannot be made from the handset if the telephone base is unplugged, switched off or if the electrical power is interrupted.

Potential TV interference: Some cordless telephones operate at frequencies that may

•

cause interference to TVs and VCRs. To minimize or prevent such interference, do not place the telephone base of the cordless telephone near or on top of a TV or VCR. If interference is experienced, moving the cordless telephone farther away from the TV or VCR will often reduce or eliminate the interference.

Rechargeable batteries: This product contains nickel-metal hydride rechargeable

•

batteries. Exercise care in handling batteries in order not to create a short circuit with conductive material such as rings, bracelets, and keys. The battery or conductor may overheat and cause harm. Observe proper polarity between the battery and the battery charger.

Nickel-metal hydride rechargeable batteries: Dispose of these batteries in a safe

•

manner. Do not burn or puncture. Like other batteries of this type, if burned or punctured, they could release caustic material which could cause injury.

The RBRC™ Seal means that the manufacturer is voluntarily participating in an industry program to collect and recycle nickel-metal hydride rechargeable batteries when taken out of service within the United States. These batteries may be taken to a participating local retailer of replacement batteries or recycling center. Or you may call 1 (800) 8-BATTERY for locations accepting spent Ni-MH batteries.

Precautions for users of implanted cardiac pacemakers

Cardiac pacemakers (applies only to digital cordless telephones):

Wireless Technology Research, LLC (WTR), an independent research entity, led a multidisciplinary evaluation of the interference between portable wireless telephones and implanted cardiac pacemakers. Supported by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, WTR recommends to physicians that:

Appendix

Important safety information

Pacemaker patients

Should keep wireless telephones at least six inches from the pacemaker.

Should NOT place wireless telephones directly over the pacemaker, such as in a breast pocket, when it is turned ON.

Should use the wireless telephone at the ear opposite the pacemaker.

WTR’s evaluation did not identify any risk to bystanders with pacemakers from other persons using wireless telephones.

Especially about telephone answering systems

Two-way recording: This unit does not sound warning beeps to inform the other party that the call is being recorded. To ensure that you are in compliance with any federal or state regulations regarding recording a telephone call, you should start the recording process and then inform the other party that you are recording the conversation.
