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 than 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. Any deletions made on one
handset are reflected on all other handsets.
• 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.

• You hear two beeps when you reach the

Memory match
When the incoming telephone number
matches the last seven digits of a
telephone number in your phonebook,
the screen displays the stored name of the
phonebook entry.
For example, if Linda Jones calls, her name
appears as
Linda
if this is how you entered
it into your phonebook.
• 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 phonebook, 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
corresponding line message,
L1 > X
Missed
or
L2 > X Missed
, shows on screen.
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
OFF
on the idle handset or
CANCEL
on the
telephone base to erase the missed
call indicator. All the entries are then
considered old.
