About caller ID
This product supports caller ID services provided by most local telephone 
service companies. Depending on your service subscription, you may see 
the caller’s number, or the caller’s name and number that are sent by the 
VGNGRJQPGUGTXKEGRTQXKFGTCHVGTVJGſTUVQTUGEQPFTKPI%CNNGT+&CNNQYU[QW
to see the name, number, date and time of calls.
Caller ID with call waiting lets you see the name and telephone number of the 
caller before answering the telephone, even while on another call.
It may be necessary to change your telephone service to use this feature. 
Contact your telephone service provider if:
You have both caller ID and call waiting, but as separate services (you may 
need to combine these services).
You have only caller ID service, or only call waiting service.
You do not subscribe to caller ID or call waiting services.
There are fees associated with caller ID services. In addition, services may 
not be available in all areas.
This product can provide information only if both you and the caller are 
in areas offering caller ID service and if both telephone companies use 
compatible equipment. The time and date are sent by the telephone service 
provider along with the call information.
You can use this product with regular caller ID service, or you can use this 
product’s other features without subscribing to either caller ID or combined 
caller ID with call waiting service.

appears on the screen, it will not be saved in the call log.
The call log stores up to 50 entries. Each entry has up to 24 digits for the 
phone number and 15 characters for the name. If the phone number has 
more than 15 digits, only the last 15 digits appear. If the name has more

call log.
You can review, redial, and copy an entry into the directory.
Entries appear in reverse chronological order.
When the call log is full, the oldest entry is deleted to 
make room for new incoming call information.
XX MISSED CALL(S) shows when there are new call log 
entries (including missed and unreviewed calls).
CALL LOG EMPTY shows when there are no records in 
the call log.
Only one handset can review the call log at a time. If a 
handset tries to enter the call log while another handset is 
already in it, NOT AVAILABLE AT THIS TIME appears.


The caller ID information may not be available for every incoming call. The 
callers may intentionally block their names and/or telephone numbers.
For call log entries with numbers between 16 and 24 digits, in order to view 
 the entire number, you must save the entry to the directory (
see page 49
).
If the phone number has more than 24 digits, it will not be saved or shown in 
the call log.
