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 history.
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
history, 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.
