Telephone base 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 telephone base is

not in use.
Press

CID

or /

DIR

to select

Settings, then press

the

SELECT softkey.

Press

CID

or /

DIR

to select

Home area code, then

press the

SELECT softkey.

Use the dialing keys (

0-9) to enter the desired home

area code. Press

CANCEL 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 delete the home

area code,

_ _ _ appears in the display.
