NOTES:

You may need to change how a caller ID number is dialed if the entry does not appear in the

correct format. Caller ID numbers may appear with an area code that may not be necessary

for local calls, or without a 1 that may be necessary for long distance calls (see

View dialing

options on page 63).

If the caller’s name you received from the telephone service provider is all in capital letters,

the first letter of every word remains a capital letter, while other letters become lowercase.

However, the next letter after the prefix “Mac”, “Mc”, “D’”, “C’” or “O’”, is kept as a capital

letter. For example, the “D” in “MacDonald” is kept as a capital letter. Another exception is

that “VAN DER” will be changed to “Van der”.

If the entry is already saved in the directory,

Number already saved displays.
