How the caller ID log works
The telephone stores caller ID information about the last 30 incoming calls
in the telephone base. Entries are stored in reverse chronological order. The
phone deletes the oldest entry when the log is full to make room for new
calls. This information is common to the telephone base and all handsets,
so changes made using any handset or the telephone base are reflected in
all other devices. If you answer a call before the information appears on the
screen, it does not show in the caller ID log.
Note: Each entry may have up to 24 digits for the phone number and 15 characters for the name.
Missed (new) call indicator
When a cordless handset or the telephone base is in idle
mode and has new or missed calls, its screen shows
XX
Missed calls.
All new and missed entries are counted as missed calls. Each
time you review a new caller ID log entry (indicated by
NEW
on the screen), the missed calls message goes away. When
there is a new unanswered call, the missed calls message
displays again. The number of missed calls includes all new
and missed entries that have not been reviewed.
If you do not want to review the missed calls one by one, but
still want to keep them in the caller ID log, you can press and hold
OFF
/CANCEL on the handset for four seconds when the handset is idle. You
will hear a confirmation tone. All the entries in the caller ID log become old
(reviewed already), and the missed calls message goes away.
Memory match
If the incoming telephone number matches the last 7 digits of a telephone
number in your directory, the name that appears on the screen matches the
corresponding name in your directory.
For example, if
Christine Smith calls, her name appears as Chris if this is how
you entered it into your directory.
Note: The number you see on your caller ID is in the format sent by the telephone service provider. It usually
delivers 10-digit telephone numbers (area code plus telephone number). If the last 7 digits of the incoming
telephone number do not match a number in your directory, the name appears as it is delivered by the telephone
service provider.
