RECEIVING AND STORING CALLS
Caller ID is a service provided by your telephone company. When you subscribe to this service, the telephone company sends the call- er’s telephone number (and name, if available) and the call’s date and time between the first and second rings. The system receives and displays this information for each call and updates the display with the current date and time. Your system saves up to 79 call records, then replaces the oldest call record with each new one. Re- peat calls are stored separately, instead of all on the same record.
During an incoming call, the red new call indicator flashes quickly while the phone is ringing, then the number of new and total calls ap- pear. The indicator flashes slowly until all calls are reviewed.
REVIEWING CALL RECORDS
Each time you receive a call, the system saves a call record in mem- ory that you can see while you are on the phone, or review later. Each call record includes the time and date of the call, the call num- ber (order in which the call is received), the caller’s telephone num- ber, and the caller’s name (if available).
To scroll through the call records, repeatedly press (or hold down) either REVIEW key.
Notes:
