Battery performance
After your Panasonic battery is fully
charged, you can expect the following
performance:
Operation
Operating time
While in use
(talking)
Up to 5 hours
While not in use
(standby)*1
Up to 11 days
While using the
Clarity Booster
feature (page 18)
Up to 3 hours
*1 Handset is off the base unit but not in
use.
Note:
L Battery power is consumed whenever
the handset is off the base unit, even
when the handset is not in use. The
longer you leave the handset off the
base unit, the shorter you can actually
talk on the handset. Actual battery
performance depends on a combination
of how often the handset is in use and
how often it is not in use.
L Once the battery is fully charged, you do
not have to charge it again until
“Recharge battery” is displayed or
7 flashes. This will maximise the
battery life.
12
Battery replacement
If battery performance diminishes, make
sure you have cleaned the charge
contacts and fully charged the battery. The
battery needs to be replaced if any of the
following are displayed after a few phone
calls even when you have fully charged the
battery.
– “Recharge battery”
– 7 (flashing)
– “Charge for 6h”

Caller ID Service
Using Caller ID service
Important:
L This unit is Caller ID compatible. To use
Caller ID features, you must subscribe to
your telephone company’s Caller ID
service.
For all local and national incoming calls,
your display will show the area code (e.g.
09 for Auckland) or the cellular prefix (e.g.
0274 for Telecom Cellular) followed by the
caller’s phone number. An Auckland
caller’s number will be displayed as
09XXXXXXX. The 7 X’s represent the 7
digits of the caller’s phone number. A caller
from a 6-digit Telecom Cellular number will
be displayed as 0274XXXXXX. For
incoming international calls, your display
may only show “0000”. For business users
on a Centrex line, your display will show
Centrex extension numbers in the shorter
extension number format used within your
company.
Using toll services from Telecom or
another company
Your telephone company may charge you
for a local call if the number dialled has the
area code prefix included. If this is
unacceptable, dial only the 7-digit local
number. Do not dial the “0” prefix or the
area code.
Caller ID features
When an outside call is being received, the
calling party’s phone number will be
displayed.
Phone numbers for the last 50 different
callers will be logged in the caller list,
allowing you to return missed calls. Caller
information is stored by the most recent
call to the oldest.
L When Caller ID information is received
and it matches a phone number stored
in the phonebook:
24
– The stored name will be displayed and
logged in the caller list. (Private name
display)
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.
L If the unit is connected to a PBX system,
caller information may not be received
properly. Consult your PBX supplier.
L If the name display service is available in
your area, the display will show callers’
names. For further information, please
contact your telephone company.
Caller ID Service
Caller list
Caller information for the last 50 different
callers will be logged in the caller list. You
can use this list to return missed calls.
L Caller information includes phone
numbers, the date and time of calls, and
the number of times each caller called.
L If the caller’s name and phone number
are stored in the phonebook, the caller’s
name and phone number are displayed
alternately.
Example: JACK SMITH
3:10P 29JUN.
0555333444
3:10P 29JUN.
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 handset
display. This lets you know if you should
view the caller list to see who called while
you were out.
Example: Handset off the base unit
L If an arrow (→ ) is displayed after the
number, the whole phone number will
not be shown. Press {*} to see the
remaining numbers or to return to the
previous display. Each time you press
