Phonebook

Memory capacity

The handset phonebook can store up to 50 entries. Each entry can contain a number up to 32 digits, and a name up to 16 letters long.

If you subscribe to Caller ID service from your local telephone company, you can select a picture to be displayed with each phonebook entry. You can also select a distinctive ringing type for each entry, so you know who is calling. A convenient search feature can help you find and dial numbers quickly (see page 20).

Timeouts and error tones

If you pause for too long while making an entry the Phonebook will time out and you will have to begin again.

If all memory locations are in use, an error tone will sound when you attempt to enter a new number. This means the memory is full, and you will not be able to store a new number until you delete an existing one.
