None,it doesn't work that way all calls go through your Caller ID and Answering Machine.As two other people have commented on this,i couldn't have said it better myself,if you buy it you won't believe the quiet you'll get from it.I'm still very happy with mine,this was a wise investment on my part.

Yes it is possible to turn it off if you use outside answering services. I just got this phone set and have read most of the manual.

Yes, however your phone service has to have this feature turned on. The phone will capture the caller ID.

I haven't found that particular option on this phone. The phone does have a voice caller ID so you'll know who is calling.

You can set the handset either to answer when you lift the handset off the base or not answer until you push the "talk" button. So, if you have it set to not answer until you push talk you can read the caller ID without answering. (On each handset...go to "settings" on the screen and scroll to "auto answer", then select "yes" or "no" )

Yes. Press Hold and then press dial to make it accessible. Or to get rid of it so you won't be ear dialing just press hold again.

This feature is discussed on page 29 of your Operating Instructions Handbook. It is referred to as "Talking Caller ID" and it directs one to page 24, which shows how it is turned on/off.

Yes. It's the top right button. "Mute" lights up on the screen when the call is made, then you press the top right button to mute.

per the handbook (pg 34), it states: If you do not want the first ring from a number on the call block list to sound, turn the first ringsetting to "Off". The default setting is "On". So to answer your question, yes it can be done. Also for any other question, here is the URL from the Panasonic site for the manual. http://service.us.panasonic.com/OPERMANPDF/KXTG6841-MUL.PDF

I don't think that it has an actual designated mute button but there may be a way of muting by hitting the call waiting button on this additional handset or int. on the base unit of the original unit to which you are adding this one. You might check with Panasonic technical on this as I don't want to mislead anyone. When you get an official answer, would you enlighten me please?

I am now on my second at&t phone set and once again I have a battery issue which made me replace the previous set in the first place! I enjoyed its functions but now I have decided to purchase a different phone set to replace it and will go with a different company this time!!! but yes you can silence the caller id by going into menu and select caller id and choose on or off to both the base or handset. if I did not have this battery issue I would highly recommend this phone.......
