Entering Your Area Code

If you can make a call by dialing only 7 digits (instead of 10), you can program your local area code in your phone. If you get a call from within your area code, you'll only see the 7-digit phone number. If you get a call from outside your area code, you'll see all 10 digits.

1) When the phone is in standby mode, press and hold the call id/menu key. The following screen appears.

2) Press the ▼ key to move the pointer to select Area Code.

3) Press the select/channel key. If an area code was already stored, the phone will display it.

4) Use the number keys (0 - 9) to enter the 3-digit area code. If you make an error, use the delete/transfer key to backspace.

5) Press the select/channel key. A confirmation tone sounds.

6)Press the end key or return the handset to the charging cradle to complete the setting. The handset returns to standby mode.
