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 log 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
CID or DIR to scroll to Settings, then
press MENU/SELECT.
3. Use
CID or DIR to scroll to Home area code,
then press MENU/SELECT
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
the screen shows Area code will not show in CID
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).
