Caller ID
If you subscribe to caller ID service,
information about each caller appears
after the first or second ring. If you
answer a call before the caller
information appears on the screen, it will
not be saved in the caller ID log.
The caller ID log stores up to 30 entries.
Each entry has up to 24 digits for the
phone number and 15 characters for the
name.
If the telephone number has more that
15 digits, only the last 15 digits appear.
If the name has more than 15 characters,
only the first 15 characters are shown
and saved in the caller ID log.
Entries appear in reverse chronological
order. When the caller ID log is full, the
oldest entry is deleted to make room for
new incoming call information.
Caller ID log entries are shared by all
system handsets (for multiple handset
models only). Any deletions made on
one handset are reflected on all other
handsets.
NOTE
• This product can provide information
only if both you and the caller are in
areas offering caller ID service and if
both telephone service providers use
compatible equipment. The time and
date are sent by your telephone service
provider along with the call information.

NOTE
• You hear two beeps when you reach the
beginning or end of the caller ID log.
Memory match
When the incoming telephone number
matches the last seven digits of a
telephone number in your directory, the
screen displays the stored name of the
directory entry.
For example, if Linda Jones calls, her
name appears as Linda if this is how you
entered it into your directory.
NOTE
• The number shown in the caller ID log
is in the format sent by the telephone
service provider. It usually delivers 10-digit
telephone numbers (area code plus
phone number). If the last seven digits
of the incoming telephone number does
not match a number in your directory, the
name appears as it is delivered by the
telephone service provider.
Missed call indicator
When there are calls that have not been
reviewed in the caller ID log, the handset
displays XX missed calls.
Each time you review a caller ID log
entry marked NEW, the number of
missed calls decreases by one.
When you have reviewed all the missed
calls, the missed call indicator no longer
displays.
If you do not want to review the missed
calls one by one, press and hold
CANCEL on the idle handset to erase
the missed call indicator. All the entries
are then considered old.
