Seven-Digit Dialing

If you can make a local call by dialing only 7 digits instead of 10, you can program your local area code in your phone. If you get a call from within your area code, you will only see the 7-digit phone number. If you get a call from outside your area code, you will see all 10 digits. To enter an area code, follow the steps below:

1.Press [menu/clear]. Select the GLOBAL SETUP menu, and then the AREA CODE submenu.

.Use the number keypad [0] to [9] to enter a 3-digit area code. If an area code has already been stored, it will appear in the display. Press [menu/clear] to delete the stored code, and then enter a new one.

3.Press . A confirmation tone sounds.

NOTE: Do not program an area code if you must dial all 10 digits to make a local call.
