Handset settings

Home area code

If you dial local calls using only seven digits (area code not required), you can

program your home area code so that when you receive a call within your

local area, the telephone number is automatically stored without the area

code in the call log.
To change the setting:

Press the

MENU softkey when the handset is not

in use.
Press or to select

SETTINGS, then press the

SELECT softkey.
Press or to select

Home area code, then press

the

SELECT softkey.

Use the dialing keys (

0-9) to enter the desired home

area code. Press

OFF to delete a digit.

Press the

SET softkey to confirm or press the BACK

softkey to exit to the previous menu.

If, in the future, your telephone service provider requires

you to dial the area code when making a local call, or, if

you move to a location that requires it, delete the home

area code you have already programmed following the

steps above. After you have deleted the home area code,

_ _ _ appears in the display.
