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
10 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 qCID or pDIR to scroll to >Settings, then press MENU/SELECT.
3. Use qCID or pDIR 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.
NOTE: If in the future, your telephone service provider requires you to dial 10 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 caller 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).
Dial mode
The dial mode is preset to tone dialing. If you have pulse (rotary) service, you
must change the dial mode to pulse dialing before using the telephone.
To set the dial mode:
1. Press MENU/SELECT in idle mode to enter the main menu.
2. Use qCID or pDIR to scroll to >Settings, then press MENU/SELECT.
3. Use qCID or pDIR to scroll to >Dial mode, then press MENU/SELECT.
4. Use qCID or pDIR to highlight >Tone or >Pulse, then press MENU/SELECT.
