Home area code

If you dial seven digits to make a local call (area code not 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 history. 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 history, as

they will have only seven digits.

To set the home area code:

Press the MENU softkey on the handset in idle mode to

enter the main menu.

Press or to highlight DIRECTORY, then press the

SELECT softkey.

Press the SELECT softkey to choose Home.

Press or to highlight Home area code, then press the

SELECT softkey.

Use the dialing keys to enter the desired home area code.

Press OFF/CLEAR to erase a digit.

Press to move the cursor to the right or to

the left.

Press the SET softkey to confirm. You hear a

confirmation tone.

NOTE: If, in the future, your telephone service provider requires you to dial 10 digits

to make a local call (area code + telephone number), or, if you move to a location that

requires it, delete your home area code following the steps, as mentioned above. After you

have deleted the home area code, _ _ _ appears on the handset.
