Caller ID number auto edit feature
Once you call back an edited number (see
"Editing a caller's phone number before
calling back"), the unit can automatically
edit other incoming phone numbers each
time you receive a call.
For example, you can use this feature to
set the unit to ignore the area code of
callers in your area code, so that you can
call these local numbers using caller
information without dialing the area code.
To activate this feature, you must edit an
item in the caller list (see "Editing a caller's
phone number before calling back"), then
call that number. After that, calls from that
caller's area code will be edited
automatically.
This feature can be turned on or off (page
32). The default setting is ON.

edited numbers are called back.

turn this feature off to erase previously
