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 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brieyshows
Only for 7digit dial from CID.
4. Use the dialing keys to enter a three-digit home area
code.
f Press DELETE to delete a digit.
f Press and hold DELETE to delete all digits.
5. Press MENU/SELECTtosave.Thereisaconrmationtoneandthescreen
shows Area code will not show in CIDbriey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 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).
