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 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 seven digits.
To set the home area code:
Press MENU on the telephone base in idle mode to
enter the main menu.
Press
CID or DIR to highlight Directory, then
press SELECT.
Press OPTION to choose Home.
Press CID or DIR to highlight Home area code, then
press SELECT.
The screen displays Only for 7 digits dialing from
Caller ID log.
Use the dialing keys to enter the desired home
area code.
Press
DELETE/X to erase a digit.
Press and hold
DELETE/X to erase all digits.
Press
CID or DIR to move the cursor to the left or
right.
Press SET to save. The handset displays Area code will
not show in Caller ID log. 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), you will need to delete your home area
code. With the home area code displayed, press and hold
DELETE/X
, and then press SET.
The home area code is now restored to its default setting of _ _ _ (empty).
