Beyond the Basics
The memory area for the phonebook and Caller ID are separated
in your base. Therefore anytime 100 entries are available for the
phonebook and Caller ID record in the base.
When phonebook entries are full, you will hear a beep and
MEMORY FULL appears. You cannot store any additional names
and numbers unless you delete some of the existing ones.

a group of numbers (up to 32 digits) that you may need to enter
once your call connects. This is referred to as Chain Dialing.
