Use caller ID to automatically set date and time
If you subscribe to caller ID service, the day, month and time are set 
automatically with each incoming call. Follow the steps 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. Use qCID or pDIR to scroll to >Settings, then press  
MENU/SELECT.
3. Use qCID or pDIR to scroll to >CID time sync, then 
press MENU/SELECT.
4. Use 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 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 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 ten digits to 
make a local call (area code plus telephone number), you need to delete your home  
area code to 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).
