If you dial seven digits to make a local call (no area code required), enter your area code into the telephone as the home area code. When you receive a call from within your home area code, the caller ID history only displays the seven digits of the telephone number.
This feature makes it easy for you to place a call from the caller ID log. If you dial 10 digits to make a local phone call, do not use this home area code feature. If you do, you cannot place local calls from your caller ID log, as they will have only seven digits.

press and hold X/DELETE until the digits are deleted, and then press MENU/SELECT. The home area code is now restored to its default setting of _ _ _(empty).
