Telephone base settings

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 ten digits to make a local phone call, do not use this home area code 

feature. If you do, you cannot place local calls from your caller ID log, as they 
will have only seven digits.
To set the home area code:
1. Press the MENU soft key when the handset is not in use.
2. Press 

T

 or S

 to scroll to Settings, then press the 

SELECT soft key.

3. Press 

T

 or S

 to scroll to Home area code, then 

press the SELECT soft key.

4. Use the dialing keys (0-9) to enter a three-digit home 

area code. Press CANCEL to delete a digit.

5. Press the SET soft key to save or press the BACK soft 

key to exit to the previous menu.

NOTE: If, in the future, your telephone service provider requires you to dial the area code 
when making a local call, or, if you move to a location that requires it, delete the home 
area code you have already programmed following the steps mentioned above. After you 
have deleted the home area code, _ _ _ appears in the display.
