If you are not at home or cannot answer, your telephone’s Caller ID
memory stores the data for the 40 most recent calls you received so you
can see who called while you were unavailable. When the 41st call is
received, the oldest Caller ID record (1st call) is automatically deleted.
You may review the stored information at any time. Calls received since
your last review show as
