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 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 will not be able to place calls from your caller ID log,
as they have only seven digits.
1. Press MENU/SELECT in the idle mode to enter the
main menu.
2. Use qCID or DIRp to scroll to >HOME AREA CODE, then
press MENU/SELECT.
3. Press the dial pad keys to enter a three-digit home area
code. Press MUTE/DELETE to delete digits while entering.
4. Press MENU/SELECT to save and return to the main menu.
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 MUTE/DELETE. The home area
code is now restored to its default setting of _ _ _.
