You can review the call log to find out who has called and easily return the call or copy the caller’s name and number into the directory.When the call log is full, the oldest entry is delet-ed to make room for new incoming call informa-tion.If a call is answered before the information appears on the screen, it will not be saved in the call log.NOTE: Caller ID features will work only if both you and the caller are in areas offering caller ID service, and if both tele-phone companies use compatible equipment.CALL LOGCHRISTINE SMITH908-555-0100NOV 23 10:01AM721(087('(/(7(5(',$/3$86(Caller’s nameAppears when the call is missed and un-reviewed.Date of callTime of callCHRISTINE SMITH908-555-0100NOV23 10:01AM10:01AM Caller’s numberNEW

If the telephone number of the caller matches an exact number in the directory, the name that appears on screen will match the name already in the directory. (Example: If Christine Smith calls, her name will appear as Chris if this is how it was entered in the directory.)NOTE: The number shown in your caller ID will be in the format sent by the telephone company. The telephone compa-ny usually delivers ten-digit telephone numbers (area code plus telephone number). If the telephone number of the per-son 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.Missed calls When a handset is in idle mode with unreviewed calls, its screen will show XX MISSED CALLS.Unreviewed entries will be counted as missed calls when the telephone is idle. Each time a call log entry marked NEW is reviewed, the number of missed calls decreases by one.If there are too many missed calls and you don’t want to review them one by one but still want to keep them in the caller ID log, press and hold OFF/CLEAR for four seconds when the handset is idle.

50AppendixImportant safety instructionsEspecially about cordless telephones•Privacy: The same features that make a cordless phone convenient create some limitations. Telephone calls are transmitted between the base and the handset by radio waves, so there is a possibility that your cordless phone conversations could be intercepted by radio receiving equipment within range of the cordless handset. For this reason, you should not think of cordless phone conversations as being as private as those on corded phones.•Electrical power: The base unit of this cordless telephone must be connected to a working electrical outlet. The electrical outlet should not be controlled by a wall switch. Calls cannot be made from the handset if the base unit is unplugged or switched off, or if the electrical power is interrupted.•Potential TV interference: Some cordless telephones operate at frequencies that may cause interference to TVs and VCRs. To minimize or prevent such interference, do not place the base unit of the cordless telephone near or on top of a TV or VCR. If interference is experienced, moving the cordless telephone farther away from the TV or VCR will often reduce or eliminate the interference. •Rechargeable batteries: This product contains either nickel-cadmium or nickel-metal hydride rechargeable batteries. Exercise care in handling batteries in order not to short the battery with conducting material such as rings, bracelets, and keys. The battery or conductor may overheat and cause harm. Observe proper polarity between the battery and the battery charger.•Nickel-cadmium rechargeable batteries: Must be recycled or disposed of properly. Do not dispose of in household garbage. Do not burn or puncture. Like other batteries of this type, if burned or punctured, they could release caustic mate-rial which could cause injury.The RBRC™ Seal means that the manufacturer is voluntarily participating in an industry program to collect and recycle nickel-cadmium rechargeable batteries when taken out of service within the United States. These batteries may be taken to a participating local retailer of replacement batteries or recycling center. Or you may call 1 (800) 8 BATTERY for locations accepting spent nickel-cadmium Batteries. •Nickel-metal hydride rechargeable batteries: Dispose of these batteries in a safe manner. Do not burn or puncture. Like other batteries of this type, if burned or punctured, they could release caustic material which could cause injury.
