Using Seven-Digit Dialing

If you can make a local call by dialing only seven digits instead of ten, you can tell the phone to hide your local area code in the CID list.

Do not enter an area code if your phone company requires ten- digit dialing. You might not be able to dial from the CID list.

2)Select Global Setup, then select Area Code.

3)Use the number keypad (0 - 9) to enter your three-digit area code.

4)Press Menu/select when you’re finished.

The phone uses the programmed code as a filter. When calls come in, the phone compares the area code to the programmed one. If they match, the phone hides the area code in the CID list.

While reviewing the list, press # to toggle the area code off & on.
