Program home and local area codes
Home area code is the area code for your telephone
number. Most users dial the seven digits of a telephone
number to make a call within their own area code and
digits outside of their area code. If this applies to you,
you should enter your own area code into the telephone
as the home area code. After setting, if you receive a
call from within your home area code, the screen will
display the seven digits of the telephone number. You
may, however, live in a region where you are required to
dial 0 digits (area code and telephone number) for calls
within your area code. If this applies to you, enter
000 for
the home area code and enter your area code as a local
area code. After setting, if you receive a call from within
your area code, the screen displays the 0 digits of the
telephone number.
Most users dial digits to make calls outside their home
area codes. If this applies to you, it is not necessary to
set any local area codes. However, if you dial only 0
digits to make calls to areas outside your home area
code (without dialing ), then set these local area codes
into the telephone. Up to four local area codes can be
set. After setting, if you receive a call from one of these
local area codes, the screen displays the 0 digits of the
telephone number.
Be sure to follow the directions below to set the home
and local area codes:
