Caller ID Service
Using Caller ID service
This unit is Caller ID compatible. To use
Caller ID features, you must subscribe to
Caller ID service of your telephone service
provider.
Caller ID features
When an outside call is being received, the
calling party’s name and telephone
number are displayed.
Caller information for the last 50 callers is
logged in the caller list by the most recent
call to the oldest.
L Generally caller information is displayed
from the 2nd ring.
L If the unit cannot receive caller
information, the following 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.
L If the unit is connected to a PBX system,
caller information may not be received
properly. Consult your PBX supplier.
Missed calls
If a call is not answered, the unit treats the
call as a missed call. “Missed call” is
displayed on the handset display. This lets
you know if you should view the caller list
to see who called while you were out.
You can view the number of missed calls
by pressing {CID} (left soft key).
Note:
L If you press {CID}, then press {OFF}
without viewing all missed calls in the
caller list, “Missed call” disappears
from the display. When you receive
another new call, it is displayed again.
Call Waiting Caller ID display
If you subscribe to both Caller ID and Call
Waiting with Caller ID services, the 2nd
caller’s information is displayed after you
hear a Call Waiting tone (page 27). Please
contact your telephone service provider for
details and availability of this service in
your area.
Talking Caller ID
This feature lets you know who is calling
without looking at the display. When a call
comes in, the handset and base unit
announce the caller’s name displayed on
the handset following every ring.
To use this feature, you must subscribe to
Caller ID service of your telephone service
provider.
L Name pronunciation may vary. This
feature may not pronounce all names
correctly.
L Caller ID supports names of up to 15
letters. If the caller’s name has more
than 15 letters, the name is not
displayed or announced correctly.
L When you receive a call while on the
phone, the 2nd caller’s name is not
announced even if you subscribe to both
Caller ID and Call Waiting with Caller ID
services.
This feature can help you identify who is
calling by using different ringers for
different callers stored in the phonebook
(page 29). You can assign a different
ringer to each phonebook item. When a
call is received from a caller stored in the
phonebook, the assigned ringer rings after
Caller ID information is displayed.
Light-up ID
This feature can help you identify who is
calling by using different ringer indicator
colors for different callers stored in the
handset phonebook (page 29). You can
assign a different indicator color to each
handset phonebook item. When a call is
received from a caller stored in the
handset phonebook, the assigned
indicator color flashes after Caller ID
information is displayed.
Picture ID (Color display models
only)
Important:
L Only KX-TG5766 and KX-TGA571
support this feature.
This feature can help you identify who is
calling by using different pictures for
different callers stored in the handset
phonebook (page 29). You can assign a
different picture to each phonebook item.
When a call is received from a caller stored
in the phonebook, the assigned picture is
displayed after Caller ID information is
displayed.

L You can also download original images
from your computer. Refer to the help
section of the GIGARANGE USB Utility

Once you call back an edited number, the
unit will remember the Area Code and
Format of the Edited Number. Next time
when someone calls from the same Area
Code, caller information will be customized
by the unit as follows:
– When the call is being received, the
Caller ID number will be displayed in the
same Format as the Edited Number.
– After the call is ended, the telephone
number of the caller, when reviewed
from the Caller list, will be displayed in
the same Format as the Edited Number.
For example, you can use this feature to
set the unit to ignore the area code of
callers in your area code, so that you can
call these local numbers using caller
information without dialing the area code.
To activate this feature, you must edit an
item in the caller list, then call that number.
After that, phone numbers from that
caller’s area code are edited automatically.

as determined by the total RENs, contact
the local telephone company. For
products approved after July 23, 2001,
the REN for the product is part of the

US:AAAEQ##TXXXX. The digits
represented by ## are the REN without a
decimal point (e.g., 03 is a REN of 0.3).

company will notify you in advance that
temporary discontinuance of service may
be required. But if advance notice isn’t
practical, the telephone company will
notify the customer as soon as possible.
Also, you will be advised of your right to
file a complaint with the FCC if you
believe it is necessary.
The telephone company may make
changes in its facilities, equipment,
operations or procedures that could
affect the operation of the equipment. If
this happens the telephone company will
provide advance notice in order for you
to make necessary modifications to
maintain uninterrupted service.

This device complies with Part 15 of the
FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the
following two conditions:
(1) This device may not cause harmful
interference, and (2) this device must
accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause
undesired operation.
Privacy of communications may not be
ensured when using this phone.
CAUTION:
Any changes or modifications not

device.
NOTE:
This equipment has been tested and
found to comply with the limits for a
Class B digital device, pursuant to Part
15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are
designed to provide reasonable
protection against harmful interference in
a residential installation. This equipment
generates, uses, and can radiate radio
frequency energy and, if not installed and
used in accordance with the instructions,
may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. However, there is no
guarantee that interference will not occur
in a particular installation. If this
equipment does cause harmful
interference to radio or television
reception, which can be determined by
turning the equipment off and on, the
user is encouraged to try to correct the
interference by one or more of the
following measures:
– Reorient or relocate the receiving
antenna.
– Increase the separation between the
equipment and receiver.
– Connect the equipment into an outlet
on a circuit different from that to which
the receiver is connected.
Some cordless telephones operate at
frequencies that may cause interference
to nearby TVs and VCRs. To minimize or
prevent such interference, the base of the
cordless telephone should not be placed
near or on top of a TV or VCR. If
interference is experienced, move the
cordless telephone further away from the
TV or VCR. This will often reduce, or
eliminate, interference.
FCC RF Exposure Warning:
The product complies with FCC radiation
exposure limits set forth for an
uncontrolled environment. To comply with
FCC RF exposure requirements, the
base unit must be installed and operated
with its antenna located 20 cm (8 inches)
or more between antenna and all
person’s body (excluding extremities of
hands, wrist and feet). The handset may
be carried and operated with only the
optional specific belt-clip. Other nontested belt-clips or similar body-worn
accessories may not comply and must be
avoided. The product must not be
collocated or operated in conjunction with
any other antenna or transmitter.
