Caller ID Logs
How Caller ID works
If you subscribe to Caller ID service provided by your
local phone company, information about each caller will
be displayed after the first ring.
Your call log holds up to 50 entries. You can review the
call log to find out who has called, return the call with-
out dialing, or copy the caller’s name and number into
your phonebook.
Each log entry is numbered (number 1 is always the most
recent). When the call log is full, the oldest entry is
deleted to make room for new incoming call information.
If you answer a call before the information appears on
the screen, it will not be saved in your call log.
Handset and base call logs
There are separate Caller ID logs in the handset and the
base. Each call log can store up to 50 entries. Each entry
can contain a number up to 16 digits, and a name up to
16 letters long. The procedure for viewing, dialing,
deleting and transferring call log entries to your phone-
book is the same for both the handset and the base.
About names
If the telephone number of the person calling matches a
number in your phonebook, the name that appears on
screen will match the name as you entered it into your
phonebook. (Example: If “Christine Smith” calls, her
name will appear as “Chris” if this is how you entered it
into your phonebook.)
