uses Caller Announce when it starts out in standby.

It takes at least 2 rings for the phone to receive CID information and
announce it. If the phone is answered before the end of the second ring, the
phone won't announce the name of the caller.

The Caller Announce feature only uses English, regardless of the language
for the display or the answering system prompts.

Call Blocking
If you subscribe to Caller ID, you can save phone numbers to the call block
list. When a call comes in, the phone compares the received phone number to
the numbers on the call block list. If the phone number is on the list, the phone
replaces the caller's name with
Call Blocked
and blocks the call.
The call block list holds 30 entries, and all handsets share the same list. You
can add entries by selecting
Add Call Block
in the CID menu that displays after
you have viewed the CID record or through the
Call Blocking
menu (see below).
(Only one handset can edit the call block list at a time.)
