Home area code
If you dial seven digits to make a local call (no area code required),
enter your area code into the telephone as the home area code.
When you receive a call from within your home area code, the
caller ID history only displays the seven digits of the telephone
number.
This feature makes it easy for you to place a call from the caller
ID log. If you dial ten digits to make a local phone call, do not use
this home area code feature. If you do, you cannot place local calls
from your caller ID log, as they will have only seven digits.
To set the home area code:
1. Press MENU/
SELECT in idle mode to enter the
main menu.
2. Use TCID or SDIR to scroll to Settings, then
press
MENU/SELECT.
3. Use TCID or SDIR to scroll to Home area code,
then press MENU/SELECT. The screen briefly
shows Only for 7digit dial from CID.
4. Use the dialing keys to enter a three-digit home
area code.
Press
MUTE/DELETE to delete a digit.
Press and hold MUTE/DELETE to delete all digits.
5. Press MENU/SELECT to save. There is a confirmation tone and
the screen shows Area code will not show in CID briefly before
returning to the previous menu.
NOTE: If in the future, your telephone service provider requires you to dial ten
digits to make a local call (area code plus telephone number), you need to
delete your home area code and dial out locally from the call ID log. With the
home area code displayed, press and hold MUTE/DELETE until the digits are
deleted, and then press MENU/SELECT. The home area code is now restored to
its default setting of _ _ _ (empty).
