Caller ID history
How caller ID works
If you subscribe to caller ID service provided by
your local telephone company, information about
each caller will be displayed between the first and
second ring.
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.

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.
