Different Area Code
When the phone number's area code does
not match the area code you stored, the TAD
provides two different dialing number selec-
tions. Press
VIP once, the display first shows
the ten-digit number (three digits of the area
code plus seven digits of the phone number,
for example,
8185551212 ). Press VIP
again and 1 appears before the ten-digit
number ( 18185551212 ).
Same Area Code
If the phone number's area code matches
the area code you stored, the TAD provides
four different numbers. Repeatedly press
VIP , the TAD cycles through and displays
four patterns for dialing numbers.
• Seven-digit number — for example,
5551212 .
• Eight-digit number (“1” plus the phone
number) — for example, 15551212 .
• Ten-digit number — for example,
8175551212 .
• Eleven-digit number (“1” plus the area
code plus the phone number) — for
example,
18175551212 .
Using Dial
You must store your home area code for
Callback to work correctly (see “Setting the
Area Code” on Page 9). If the call came from
your home area code, the display shows only
the seven-digit number (without an area
code). Follow these steps to dial a phone
number from Caller ID records.
