Adding numbers to the restricted outgoing calls list

A call restriction can consist of an entire phone number, an area code, etc. When the restriction is selected, calls cannot be made to any number beginning with those digits. For example, entering 2145551234 blocks calls to (214) 555- 1234 only. 1 blocks all calls starting with 1, including long distance calls and 1-800 calls. 1800 blocks 1-800 calls only.

To prevent your phone from making outgoing calls, scroll to Add restriction and press OK. Continue with the steps illustrated below.

1Scroll to Add restriction, then

press OK.

2Enter the phone number, area code,

etc. to which you want to restrict calls, then press OK.

3If you want, give a name of up to

10 characters to the restriction (such as Joey, Long dist, or 1-800 #s), then press OK.

The entry is added to your list of restricted numbers. Your phone
