Using Caller ID service

This unit is Caller ID compatible. To use Caller ID features (such as displaying caller phone numbers), you must subscribe to Caller ID service. Consult your service provider/telephone company for details.

Caller ID features

When an outside call is being received, the calling party’s telephone number is displayed. Telephone numbers for the last 50 callers are logged in the caller list by the most recent call to the oldest.

LIf the unit cannot receive caller

information, the following is 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.

LIf the unit is connected to a PBX

system, caller information may not be received properly. Consult your PBX supplier.

LIf the name display service is

available in your area, the display shows caller names. For further information, please contact your service provider/telephone company.

Missed calls

If a call is not answered, the unit treats the call as a missed call. You can view the number of missed calls by pressing

{View CID}.

Phonebook name display

When the Caller ID number is received and it matches a phone number stored

Caller ID Service

in the phonebook, the stored name from the phonebook is displayed and logged in the caller list.

Call waiting and Caller ID compatible

If you subscribe to Caller ID service, your handset displays the 2nd caller’s information while talking. After you hear a call waiting tone, the caller’s phone number will be displayed. You can answer the 2nd call, keeping the 1st call on hold. Follow your service provider/telephone company instructions using {RECALL}. LIf the phone number is stored in the

phonebook with its name, the caller’s name will also be displayed.

LPlease contact your service provider/

telephone company for details and availability in your area.

For Caller ID Type II users

When you receive a 2nd call during a conversation, you will hear a signal tone following the call waiting tone and the

conversation will be interrupted or muted for a short period of time. This

is not a fault of the product as these events are normal.

LThe tones are generated by your

service provider/telephone company.

Talking Caller ID

This feature lets you know who is calling without looking at the display. To use this feature, you must subscribe to Caller ID service from your service provider/telephone company and turn this feature on (page 28). When a caller information is received, the all supplied handset(s) and base unit announce:

– the caller’s phone number following

every ring.

Page 22

Caller ID Service

– the caller’s customized name

following every ring, if the caller information matches a phone number stored in the handset 1 phonebook. If the handset 1 does not have a link to the base unit (battery is empty, for instance), the other handset(s) unit announce the caller’s phone number. *1 KX-TG6052/KX-TG6053

LUsually the unit announces the

caller’s information after the 2nd ring. Depending on your telephone service provider, the unit may announce the caller’s information later than usual.

LName pronunciation may vary. This

feature may not pronounce all names correctly.

LUsually the unit announces the

caller’s information after the 2nd ring. If you turn on the answering system and set the ring count to “2” (page

34), the unit does not announce the caller’s information. If “Toll saver” is selected and there is a new message, the unit does not announce the caller’s information.

LYour unit may mute one or more rings

in order to announce the caller’s information. Talking Caller ID takes precedence over ringing.

LThe announcement is heard at the

ringer volume (page 15 , 28).

LThis feature can be turned on or off

(page 28).

LFor users in name display service

available areas: – The unit announces the Caller ID

name provided by your telephone service provider.

– The unit announces the customized

phonebook entry name for numbers stored in the handset 1 phonebook.

and the base

– Caller ID service has a limit of how

many characters can be displayed.

If a caller’s name is too long, the

handset may not be able to display

or announce the entire name.

Ringer ID/Light-up ID

This feature can help you identify who is calling by using different ringers and ringer indicator colours for different callers stored in the phonebook. You can assign a different ringer and indicator colour to each phonebook item. When a call is received from a caller stored in the phonebook, the assigned ringer rings and the assigned ringer indicator colour flashes after Caller ID information is displayed. If you select “No Ringer ID” (default) or “No Light-up ID” (default), the handset uses the ringer tone or ringer indicator colour you selected on page 27 when a call is received from that caller.

LThe ringer and indicator colour may

be changed after the 2nd ring.

Instructions to customer

Installation

Attached to this apparatus is an approval label. This label is evidence that it is a “Permitted Attachment” which has been authorised to be connected to your telephone service. Conditions relating to connection and operation of this Permitted Attachment are contained in Telecommunications General By-Law 220 (5). You are authorised to install this Permitted Attachment yourself by plugging it into the line socket of any regular telephone. You may connect it in place of your existing telephone or to any spare telephone socket installed in your premises. To disconnect your existing telephone you must first remove its plug from the line socket. You can then insert the plug of your Permitted Attachment into the socket and use your equipment. If the plug of your existing telephone cannot be readily removed, you will have to remove the screw securing it. To do this proceed as follows:

1. Loosen screw “A” sufficiently to remove the socket cover. (See Fig. 1.)

2. Remove screw “B” and withdraw the plug. (See Fig. 2.)

3. Replace screw “B”. (See Fig. 3.) Ensure that it screws completely into the socket

recess. (If the screw is too long, increase the hole depth or replace the screw with one 5 mm shorter.)

4. Replace socket cover and tighten screw “A”. (See Fig. 4.)

Useful Information

If you are satisfied with the operation of your telephone service after plugging in your Permitted Attachment, your installation is completed. You will be unable to connect this Permitted Attachment if your telephone service consists only of a wall phone or an old style telephone which is not connected by means of a modern plug and socket. In such cases a new socket will need to be installed. Should the Permitted Attachment not operate when plugged into a socket, it is either faulty or unsuitable for operation with your telephone service. It should be returned to the store where purchased or an Authorised Service Centre.

Service difficulties

If at any time a fault occurs on your telephone service, carry out the following checks before you call for service: LDisconnect the Permitted Attachment and try using the service with the normal

telephone.

LIf the telephone service then operates satisfactorily, the fault is in your Permitted

Attachment. Leave the Permitted Attachment disconnected and report the fault to its supplier or agent to arrange for repair.

LIf when using the telephone the service is still faulty, report the fault to “Service

Difficulties and Faults” for attention. You are required to keep this Permitted Attachment in good working order while it is connected to your telephone service. Its construction or internal circuit must not be modified in any way without permission.

WARNING:

This cordless telephone system does not incorporate provision for secrecy of conversations. Appropriately tuned radio equipment and other cordless telephone systems in close proximity may be used by a third party to monitor and possibly interrupt conversations in progress when this system is on radio operation.
