Dialing a Caller ID Number

When reviewing any call record in the Caller ID memory, you can dial back the
caller's number.
1. Make sure the phone is OFF (not in talk mode).
. Press caller id (- or +) button (on base) or caller ID/vol (- or +) button (on cordless
handset) until the desired call record is displayed.
Depending on (a) how the incoming caller's phone number is formatted when
received, and (b) whether or not you pre-programmed your local area code into
memory, you may need to adjust the format of the caller's phone number before
dialing it back.
The format button lets you change the format of the displayed number. Available
formats include:
Number of digits
Eleven digits
Ten digits
Seven digits
NOTE: If the phone company does not supply all ten digits of an
incoming caller's number, you will not be allowed to adjust the
format of that number.
Scroll to the number you want to call back:
