Caller ID history
If you subscribe to caller ID service provided by your telephone service
provider, information about each caller will appear after the first or second ring.
If you answer a call before the caller information appears on the screen, it is
not saved in the call log.
The call log stores up to 45 entries. Each entry has up to 24 digits for the
phone number and 15 characters for the name. If the phone number has
more than 15 digits, only the last 15 digits appear. If the name has more than
15 characters, only the first 14 characters are shown and saved in the call
log.
You can review, redial, and copy an entry into the directory.
Entries appear in reverse chronological order.
When the call log is full, the oldest entry is deleted to make room for new
incoming call information.
CID EMPTY
shows when there are no records in the call log.
Memory match
When the incoming telephone number matches exactly a telephone number
in your directory, the name on the screen matches the corresponding name in
your directory.
For example, if Linda Jones calls, her name appears as
Linda
if this is how
you entered it into your directory.

If the phone number has more than 24 digits, it will not be saved or shown in
the call log.
The number shown in the call log is in the format sent by the telephone service
provider. The telephone service provider usually delivers ten-digit phone
numbers (area code plus phone number). If the telephone number of the caller
does not exactly match a number in your directory, the name appears as it is
delivered by the telephone service provider. For example if the telephone
service provider includes the area code but your directory number does not, the
name appears as delivered by the telephone service provider.
