Setting Up Caller ID
To set up your Caller ID, display the Quick Menu and select Caller ID & Msgs,
then select Caller ID and Edit Settings. Use the up and down arrow buttons to
highlight the setting you want to change, then press SELECT to view the options
for that setting.
Notication Lets you turn Caller ID notication on or off. Setting this to On
displays the on-screen Caller ID alert when a call is received. You may want to
turn this feature off when you are recording manually and do not want the on-
screen messages to appear on your recordings. Your calls will be stored in the
Caller ID Log screen even when notication is turned off.
Receiving Calls
When your phone rings twice and Notication is set to On, an alert appears
at the bottom of the screen temporarily (except in the guide and in full-screen
menus). To clear the Caller ID alert from the screen, press the EXIT button on
the remote control. To turn notication off permanently, press the down arrow
button to highlight Disable Notication and press SELECT.
The alert may include the phone number by itself or both the name and phone
number. The alert information depends on the type of service your telephone
company provides.
The Caller ID alert will override closed captioning at the bottom of the screen
(if any is being displayed) and will appear for 30 seconds. The Caller ID alert is
displayed over live TV only.
Note: If you're using your telephone and another call arrives, the new call’s
information won’t appear in the alert or be recorded in the Caller ID Log
screen unless you have type II service and a type II Caller ID box in your
house.
If you receive a call while recording a program, the Caller ID alert will
display (and be recorded) as selected under Notication.
At all times Caller ID messages will be stored in the Call Log screen (unless
a call arrives when you are on the telephone and you do not have a Type II
box or Type II service).

Your Caller ID alert and call list might display the following text:

your Caller ID alert and call list, or if you’d
like to subscribe to Caller ID, check with your
local phone company about the availability of
different types of Caller ID service.
