Setting area code predialling

On the base station, save the complete code (with international code) for the area in which
you are using the phone.
For VoIP calls you must generally always dial the area code – even for local calls. You can
save the need to dial the area code for local calls by setting your phone to prefix this code

For calls made via VoIP, the area code entered is then prefixed to all numbers that do not
start with 0 – even when dialling numbers from the directory and other lists. Exceptions:
Numbers for which you have defined dialling plans (page 149).
