Caller ID operation

If you subscribe to caller ID service with your local telephone service provider, this telephone stores all incoming calls with valid caller ID information in the call history. Name, number, time and date can all be stored, if they are sent with the call. A call is assigned a number from 1 to 65. The most recent call will have the highest number. The call history number appears next to the phone number on the display. New (unreviewed) call information shows NEW in the display. A repeat call from the same number shows REP in the display.

If you answer a call before information appears on the screen, it will not be stored in the call history. Between the first and second rings, the screen displays:

The caller's name (up to 15 letters are sent by your phone company), The caller's area code and telephone number (area code is not displayed if it is programmed as the home area code),

The time and date of the call.

The call's position in call history, which is displayed to the left of the phone number.

Call information is displayed for about 30 seconds.

1. If you press REMOVE while the phone is ringing, or while you are on a call, the call information will not be stored in the call history.

2.If you are using the display for setup or to see entries in the set's memory and a call comes in, press CLEAR while the phone is ringing to see the call information. If you were setting up the phone, press OPTIONS first to save the set up information.

Even if the call information is not displayed, it will be stored in the call history.
