Display Dial

NOTE: To use the Display Dial feature, you must follow the directions for
"Programming Home and Local Area Codes" in the FEATURE SETUP
section of this manual.
As you review calls in call history, you can dial a displayed phone number by
D
pressing
on the handset. The screen displays the number being
called. If the screen displays an error indicator (for example Er), you cannot
dial any displayed digits.
If the call came from your home area code, then the screen displays only the
seven digits of the number you're calling (without an area code). When you
D
press
, the phone dials the seven displayed digits. You must
program your home area code for this to work.
You can also program up to four other local area codes. These are area codes
that do not require dialing a "1" before them. After storing these area codes, if
you receive a call from one of these area codes, the screen displays the ten
digits (three digits of area code plus seven digits of phone number). When
D
you press
, the phone dials ten digits, without inserting a "1" before
the area code. If you receive a call from an area code not programmed in the
phone, you will see 10 digits on the screen (the area code and the phone
number). The phone will automatically dial "1" before the number when you
D
press
.
If you try to use the Display Dial feature, but your call cannot be completed
unless you dial "1" before the number, follow the steps below:
