Use caller ID to automatically set date and time
Follow the steps below to turn the CID time sync feature on 
or off. The default setting is On. 
1. When the handset is in idle mode, press MENU/SELECT to 
enter the main menu.
2. Press qCID or pDIR to scroll to >Settings, then press  
MENU/SELECT.
3. Press qCID or pDIR to scroll to >CID time sync, then press 
MENU/SELECT.
4. Press qCID or pDIR to highlight >On or >Off, then press  
MENU/SELECT to save. There is a confirmation tone and the screen returns 
to the previous menu. 
Home area code
If you dial 7 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 7 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 7 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. 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 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).
