alphanumeric characters (including spaces).

If you subscribe to caller ID service from your

local telephone company, you can select a

picture or an animation to be displayed with

each directory entry. You can also select a

distinctive ringer melody for each entry so that

this caller’s identity is known as soon as the

telephone rings. A convenient search feature

can help you find and dial numbers quickly

(see page 32).

If additional handsets are registered, all hand-

sets and the telephone base will have separate

directories and call logs.

If you pause for over sixty seconds while input-

ting an entry, the procedure will time-out and

it will be necessary 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 an existing one is deleted.

Information about caller ID with call waiting

This product has a caller ID with call waiting feature which

works with services from your local telephone service pro-

vider.

Caller ID with call waiting lets you see the name and tele-

phone number of the caller before answering the telephone,

even when on another call.

You may need to change your telephone service to use

this feature. Contact your telephone company if:

• you have both caller ID and call waiting, but as separate

services (you may need combined service).

• you have only caller ID service, or only call waiting ser-

vice.

• you don’t subscribe to any caller ID or call waiting ser-

vices.

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.

There are fees for caller ID services, but these may not be

available in all areas.

Depending on your service subscription, you may see the

caller’s number, or the caller’s name and number. This prod-

uct 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 company along with the call

information.

IMPORTANT

Handset call log & redial

How caller ID on the HOME line works

If you subscribe to the caller ID service, informa-

tion about each caller will be displayed after the

first or second ring.

You can review the call log to find out who has

called, return the call by pressing HOME/FLASH

or CELL or copy the caller’s name and number

into your directory.

The call log can store up to 100 entries. Calls

are displayed in reverse chronological order (the

latest unreviewed first). When the call log is

full, the earliest reviewed entry is automatically

deleted to make room for new incoming call

information.

If you answer a call before the information appears

on the screen, the caller ID information will not

be saved in the call log.

Clear call log

Use the DELETE softkey to clear a single entry

or all entries in the call log.

bers dialed from this handset. You can redial

swered calls. The number of unanswered calls is

shown on the handset idle screen as Missed

XX MISSED CALLS are calls that have

not been reviewed on that handset. When a

new call log entry is reviewed, the number of

missed calls on that handset is decreased by

one. The number of MISSED CALLS on
