Area codes
Use this feature to program this system to recognize one home area code and
up to four local area codes. This feature makes it easy for you to place a call
from the caller ID log.
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 information only displays the
seven digits of the telephone number, and when you dial from the call log, only
seven digits are dialed.
If you must dial 10 digits (the area code and telephone number) for local
calls, enter
000
for the home area code and enter your area code as a local
area code. Then, if you receive a call from within your area code, the screen
displays all 10 digits of the telephone number, and when you dial from the call
log, all 10 digits are dialed.
If you have more than one area code for your region, enter those area codes as
local area codes.
