STORING YOUR AREA CODE

You can store your local area code in the phone’s Caller ID record so it does not show 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 16.
