NOTES:

1.Caller ID features will work only if both you and the caller are in areas offering caller ID service, and if both telephone companies use compatible equipment.

2.The number shown by your caller ID will be in the format sent by the telephone company. The telephone company usually delivers

10-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.

Information about the last 30 incoming calls is stored in the caller ID history. You can review the caller ID history to find out who has called, return the call, or copy the caller’s name and number into directory.

When the caller ID history 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 the caller ID history.

About names

Names of callers will be displayed only if the information is provided by your local telephone company.

If the incoming telephone number exactly matches a telephone number in your directory, the name that appears on the screen will match the corresponding name in your directory.

For example: If Christine Smith calls, her name will appear as CHRIS if this is how you entered it into your directory.
