STORING AN AREA
CODE
To quickly dial local calls using the
Caller ID and stored number features,
you need to store your local area code
in the system. Then, when you dial a
call using
DIAL
or
DIAL 1+
, the ET-545
skips the area code if it matches the
one you stored.
Note: You must store your local area
code or the phone will not dial more
than 7 digits when you dial numbers
from a Caller ID record.
Hold down
FLASH/DEL
for 3 seconds
when the
TALK
key is not lit. The dis-
play shows
ENTER
AREA
CODE
. En-
ter your 3-digit area code. The phone
sounds two long beeps.
