2. Preparation
Note:
L It is normal for batteries not to reach full capacity at
the initial charge. Maximum battery performance is reached after a few complete cycles of charge/discharge (use).
L Actual battery performance depends on a
combination of how often the cordless handset is in use and how often it is not in use (standby).
L Battery operating time may be shortened over time
depending on usage conditions and ambient temperature.
L Even after the cordless handset is fully charged, the
cordless handset can be left on the base unit without any ill effect on the batteries.
L The battery strength may not be displayed correctly
after you replace the batteries. In this case, place the cordless handset on the base unit and charge for at least 7 hours.
2.3 Turning the cordless handset power ON/OFF

Note:
L To ensure the battery charges properly, clean the
charge contacts of the cordless handset (2) and the charger (3) with a soft, dry cloth once a month. Clean more often if the unit is subject to grease, dust, or high humidity.

Caller ID

3.8 Caller ID service

This unit is compatible with the Caller ID service offered by your local telephone company. To use this unit’s Caller ID features, you must subscribe to a Caller ID service.
Important:
L This unit is designed in accordance with the ETS
(European Telecommunication Standard) and only supports the basic CLIP (Calling Line Identification Presentation) features.
L This unit will only display the caller’s telephone
number and name.
L This unit will not support future additional
telephone services.
L Depending on the service of the local telephone
company, the date/time of the call or the caller’s name may not be displayed.
Make sure the following ring count is set to 2 or more rings beforehand.
– TAM ring count (page 41, feature #06 on page 43) – FAX ring count (feature #06 on page 43) – TEL/FAX ring count (feature #78 on page 48)

some areas. For further information, please contact your telephone company.
3.8.1 How Caller ID is displayed
The calling party’s name or telephone number will be displayed after the 1st ring. You have the option of whether or not to answer the call. The unit will automatically store caller information (name, telephone number, date and time of the call) from the 50 most recent callers. It is possible to view caller information one at a time on the display (page 26) or print the entire Caller ID list (page 71).
L When caller information is received and it matches a
telephone number stored in the unit’s phonebook, the stored name will be displayed and logged.
L If the unit is connected to a PBX (Private Branch
Exchange) system, caller information may not be received properly. Consult your PBX supplier.
L If the unit cannot receive caller information, the
following will be displayed: OUT OF AREA: The caller dialled from an area which does not provide Caller ID service. PRIVATE CALLER: The caller requested not to send caller information. LONG DISTANCE: The caller made a long distance call.
Missed calls
If a call is not answered, the unit treats the call as a missed call. The number of missed calls is shown on the display. This lets you know if you should view the caller list to see who called while you were out.

L The caller information will not be displayed if a message is recorded by
using {MEMO} (page 39).
10.3.8 If a power failure occurs
L The unit will not function. L The unit is not designed for making emergency telephone calls when the power fails. Alternative arrangements
should be made for access to emergency services.
L Fax transmission and reception will be interrupted. L If delayed transmission (feature #25 on page 45) is programmed and a power failure prevents the document from
being sent at the set time, the document will be sent after power is restored.
L If any fax documents are stored in the memory, they will be lost. When power is restored, a power down report will
be printed stating which documents in memory have been erased.
