Caller ID log
If you subscribe to caller ID service, 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 will not be saved in the caller ID log.
The caller ID log stores up to 50 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 15 characters are shown and saved in the caller ID log.
You can review, redial and copy an entry into the directory.
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.
XX Missed calls displays when there are new caller ID log entries that have
not been reviewed.
Caller ID log empty displays when you access the caller ID log with no records.
Only one handset can review the caller ID log at a time. If a handset tries to
enter the caller ID log while another handset is already in it, Not available at
this time appears.
The caller ID information may not be available for every incoming call. The
callers may intentionally block their names and/or telephone numbers.
For caller ID log entries with numbers between 16 and 24 digits, in order to view
the entire number, you must save the entry to the directory (see page 41).
If the phone number has more than 24 digits, it will not be saved or shown in
the caller ID log.

Memory match
If the last seven digits of the incoming telephone number is an exact match with
a telephone number in your directory, the name that appears on the screen
matches the corresponding name in your directory.
For example, if Elizabeth Jones calls, her name appears as
Liz if this is how you
entered it into your directory.
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 seven digits of the incoming telephone number does not match
a number in your directory, the name appears as it is delivered by the telephone
service provider.
