2.Use DIR / CID 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 DELETE/MUTE to delete digit 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), re-program the home area code by following the steps above. With the home area code displayed, press and hold DELETE/MUTE to remove the contents. The home area code will now be restored to its default setting of _ _ _.
