STORING YOUR AREA CODE

You can store your local area code in the phone’s Caller ID record so it does not store the area code if the received call is from your local area. If for some reason you need to

dial the area code (or store in the memory), you can add it afterwards. “Adding/Deleting the Area Code” on Page 20.

Note: If your calling area requires 10-digit di- aling including area code, do not enter the area code but leave this option blank.

Follow these steps to store your area code.

1.Lift the handset and hold down CALL ID.

2.Press 3 or VOL/CID 9 twice to select Area Code.

3.Press CH/SELECT, then enter your three- digit area code. If you make a mistake, repeatedly press 6 or 7 to move the cursor over the incorrect digit, then enter the correct number.

Note: If an area code is already stored, it ap- pears on the display. To delete the area code, press DELETE three times. Then enter your area code. Or you can use 6 or 7 to move the cursor and edit the area code.

MAKING AND RECEIVING CALLS

To make a call, lift the handset and press TALK. Talk and the current volume setting (see “Adjusting the Handset Volume” on Page 14) appear on the handset’s display, and the CHARGE/IN USE indicator on the base lights. Then dial the number.
