About Smart call blocker
Smart call blocker handles calls in the following ways:
Call category Call control
Welcome calls Allow
The telephone rings when there is an incoming call
with number saved in your allow list or directory,
but not in your block list. Robocalls with caller
names saved in your star name list will also ring.
Unwelcome calls Block
The telephone does not ring when there is an
incoming call with number saved in your block list,
and the call will be rejected.
Calls without numbers
You can set to screen,
allow, or block all calls
of this call category, or
to send these calls to
the answering system.
Allow is the default
setting. To change the
setting, see Control
calls without numbers
on page 80.
Screening with caller name
If you have selected this option, the telephone
plays the screening announcement, and then
ask the caller to say his/her name before the call
rings on your telephone. You will then hear the
caller’s name announced if you have turned on the
caller ID announce feature. Then, you can decide
whether to accept or reject the call, or to forward
the call to the answering system.
Screening without caller name
If you have selected this option, the telephone
plays the screening announcement, and then ask
the caller to press the pound key (#) before the
call rings on your telephone. You can then answer
the call.
Allow (default settings)
The telephone allows the calls to get through and
ring. The caller’s number will not be saved to the
allow list.
Answering system
If you have selected this option, the telephone
forwards the calls to the answering system
without ringing.
Block
If you have selected this option, the telephone
rejects the calls with block announcement without
ringing. The caller’s number will not be saved to
the block list.
