Home area code

If you dial seven digits to make a local call (no area code

 

required), enter your area code into the telephone as the

?IPNF!BSFB!DPEF

home area code. When you receive a call from within your

EJSFDUPSZ

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 will not be able to place calls from your caller ID log as they have only seven digits.

NOTE: If, in the future, your telephone service provider requires you to dial 10 digits to make a local call (area code + phone number), you will need to delete your home area code. With the home area code displayed, press and hold DELETE. The home area code is now restored to its default setting of _ _ _.
