If you have the Panasonic Cell2Phone system and you are using it with a cell phone you can turn off the talking CID 2 ways. The first is access Menu (base) #*162, or (handset)#162 and follow instructions BUT this only works on incoming landline. If you have a cell phone hooked into system you MUST access Menu and #6141 (1st cell phone) #6142 (2nd cell phone). We had difficulty finding this and Panasonic was not helpful.

I seem to recall you can through the menu. If I get a moment I'll check it out but there was an option,I think, that allows you to turn off the sound. I thought of turning mine off but decided to leave it on so that I know it's working.

Yes, you don't have to use it. I never do. it's annoying. you can see the caller ID read out very clearly on the phone. I'm still very pleased with this purchase.

Yes, you can put the ringer on silent. It's on page 26 of the instruction book. The phone has the feature that annouces who is calling and you can also turn that off.

Yes. The ringer can be turned off by scrolling the menu until you see ringer. Once there, select ringer volume. Lower volume until ringer is turned off. I hope this helps.

Yes, it has talking ID and you will know who it is. Another feature I like is that you can block calls from people you don't want to talk to. I highly recommend this phone.

Press "Menu" on the base, arrow to "Ringers," and press the down arrow on the "Volume" button, you can turn the ringer off. It will stay off if you press "Menu/Select" to save your preference. PS--If you have the Caller ID feature, the phone will not announce the number when the volume is in the "Off" position.

There is a menu option called Call Sharing. Turn it off to keep other phones from hearing/joining in. It comes turned ON, so if you want all your calls to be private, turn it OFF.

According to the instructions printed on the box, this speaker does not have mute function to silence the speaker when a call comes in. Probably the only thing you can do is turn off the speaker using the power switch.

That is extremely annoying, but there is a way to do it. If I remember right, there are settings in the skype program that disable it. I will double-check where they are tonight, but it can be done. It drove me nuts too.
