If there is more than one entry beginning with the
same letter, it will be necessary to scroll through
all the names that begin with that letter before
seeing names that beginning with the next letter.
For example, if there are name entries for
Jennifer, Jessie, Kevin and Linda in the directory, pressing the dial pad key 5 once will show
Jennifer, twice for Jessie, three times Kevin and
four times for Linda. If you press 4, and if there
is no name entry which matches those letters,
the directory will show Jennifer because it is the
name entry which matches the next available letter (J) in the directory.

Caller ID operation
About names
Names of callers will be displayed only if the information is provided by your local telephone company.
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 company usually delivers ten-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.
