NOTES:
You may need to change how a caller ID number is dialed if the entry does not
appear in the correct format. Caller ID numbers may appear with an area code that
is not necessary for local calls, or without a 1 that is necessary for long distance
calls (see View dialing options on page62).
If the caller’s name you received from the telephone service provider is all in capi-
tal letters, the first letter of every word remains a capital letter, while other letters
become lowercase. However, the next letter after the prefix “Mac”, “Mc”, “D’”, “C’” or
“O’”, is kept as a capital letter. For example, the “D” in “MacDonald” is kept as a capi-
tal letter. Another exception is that “VAN DER” will be changed to “Van der”.
If the telephone number from the caller ID information has already been saved in
the directory under a different name, the new name will overwrite the old one.
