Entering the area code
When you use this phone for the first time, or move to an area that has a
different area code, you must enter your home area code. Otherwise, you
cannot use some functions of this phone and the Caller ID functions.
This is also necessary because the phone must be able to select an area code to
properly dial call from the Caller ID list.
Depending on your region, enter 3-digit area code as follows:
Case 1.
If 7-digit dialing (no area code) is accepted for local calls in your area, see “To enter
your home area code” below.
If you live in an area where calls from or to other local areas can also be made by 10-digit dialing
(area code + number), you can register up to 5 local area codes with this telephone to take
advantage of this system. See “To enter the local area code (For 10 digits phone number users)”
on page 20.
Case 2.
If 10-digit dialing (area code + number) is required for all local calls in your area, at
first, enter “000” in your home area code. See “To enter your home area code” below.
Then see “To enter the local area code (For 10 digits phone number users)” on page
20.
When other phones (IT-M804 or IT-M704) are connected to the LINE 1 jack, the same
home area code and local area codes are automatically set to all the phones. Be sure
to connect the phones beforehand, and enter the area code.
When you connect the AC power adaptor to
an AC outlet for the first time, the following
display appears for about 20 seconds.
To erase the home area code, return the phone
to the factory setting (see page 75).
