Caller ID operation
Caller ID operation
Memory match
Names of callers will be displayed only if the infor-
mation is provided by your local telephone com-
pany.
If the telephone number of the caller exactly match-
es a telephone number in your directory, the name
that appears on the screen will match the corre-
sponding name already in the directory.
Example: If Christine Smith calls, her name will
appear as Chris if this is how it was entered in the
directory.
NOTE: The number shown in your caller ID will be in
the format sent by the telephone company. The tele-
phone company usually delivers ten-digit telephone
numbers (area code plus telephone number). If the
telephone number of the person calling does not
exactly match a number in your directory, the name will
appear as delivered by the telephone company. For
example if the telephone company includes the area
code and the directory number does not, the name will
appear as delivered by the telephone company.
Missed calls
When a handset is in idle mode with un-reviewed
calls, its screen will show
XX MISSED CALLS.
Un-reviewed entries will be counted as missed
calls when the telephone is idle. Each time a call
log entry marked
NEW is reviewed, the number of
missed calls decreases by one.
If there are too many missed calls and you
don’t want to un-reviewed them one by one
but still want to keep them in the caller ID log,
press and hold
OFF/
CLEAR
for four seconds
when the handset is idle. All reviewed entries in
the caller ID log will be considered old and the
counter is reset to 0.
